Police arrested a Cleveland, Tenn., man after a fight that ended with another man dead and a woman wounded in McMinn County.
Tracy Carter, 38, is charged with second-degree murder after he reportedly called 911 and told police he shot and killed 21-year-old Josh Powell on Saturday evening, according to the McMinn County Sheriff’s Office.
The fight between Mr. Carter and Mr. Powell involved a domestic dispute with Stephanie Baker at her house on Country Road 48, said Kristen Helm, a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman.
Ms. Baker was shot in the arm during the fight and is recovering, Ms. Helm said.
Sheriff’s deputies initially responded to the call Saturday about 7 p.m. and found Mr. Powell dead from a single shot to the abdomen, police reports show. Mr. Carter was found at a nearby house and was taken into custody for questioning.
