The man responsible for Sunday afternoon’s fatal shooting of a still unidentified man near the intersection of Lewis and Winfrey Streets in the Napier community is a convicted felon who is wanted for parole violation by the State of Tennessee.
Calvin W. Kinzer, 45, was taken into custody this afternoon by Specialized Investigations Division TITANS detectives at a Lebanon Pike convenience market. He was carrying one gun. There was a second in his car.
During an interview with Homicide Unit detectives at police headquarters, Kinzer admitted to shooting the man on Sunday, claiming that he did so in defense of himself and others after the man fired first. The deceased man’s gun was recovered Sunday afternoon.
Kinzer is being booked on the parole violation warrant and new charges of gun possession by a convicted felon. The fatal shooting investigation will be staffed with the District Attorney’s Office upon its conclusion.
