A former Tennessee State Trooper is dead, and another man is injured after a shooting on Steeplechase Drive in Smithville Sunday.

City Police said that Darrell Knowles died at the scene of the incident from a gunshot wound, and Josh Hawkins was transported to DeKalb Community Hospital by DeKalb EMS, then taken to Vanderbilt Medical Center to be treated for a gunshot wound to the arm. The shooting apparently stemmed from a domestic disturbance.

Police were dispatched to the home shortly before the shooting to investigate reports of an argument between Knowles his wife. Knowles was asked to leave the property.

Meanwhile Hawkins reportedly came the residence, the home of his ex father-in-law, to drop off his children for his ex-wife, who was married to Knowles.

Knowles allegedly forced his way into the home, and the two men got into a fight. Knowles reportedly drew a handgun and shot Hawkins once in the arm. Sources say it is believed that Knowles then turned the gun on himself, and died at the scene from a self inflicted wound to the head.

Central dispatch received the call reporting the shooting just before 5 p.m.

No one else at the home was injured, and Hawkins is expected to recover from his wound. Smithville Police continue to investigate.
