The investigation to this point shows that the two female suspects in this case, Sadler and Miles, were inside the residence visiting Rashawn and Roger Wallace.  At approximately 2:30 a.m., Miles went out the front door, which allowed other persons to enter, including Clack, Woods and Sims.  Shots were fired inside the residence.  Rashawn Wallace was hit multiple times and died at the scene.  His father was wounded in the leg and was transported to Vanderbilt University Medical Center for treatment.
