On December 8th around 3:00 am investigators were called to Erlanger on a reported subject shot, 3 subjects who had brought Fisk to the hospital stated they were somewhere in the downtown area and encountered 4 B/Ms in a white car, there was an altercation and shots were fired. The reporting parties stated they found Fisk on the street where he had sustained a gunshot wound to the chest.
None of this was true; Fisk was not shot in our city, this story was fabricated by the other subjects with Fisk and none of this incident happened in Chattanooga . Fisk was pronounced dead at Erlanger. The murder of Nathan Fisk did not occur in Chattanooga .
Through investigation and cooperation with other law enforcement agencies, information was developed and confirmed that the shooting did not occur as reported and did not happen in the downtown area.
