Autopsy: Markquett Martin died of self-inflicted gunshot running from police


View Comments
An autopsy, conducted Feb. 11 by Davidson County Deputy Chief Medical Examiner Thomas Deering, shows Markquett Martin s cause of death was a single gunshot wound to the right side of his head. Deering wrote in his report Martin was struck once while carrying a handgun with a very large magazine while fleeing Metro Nashville Police Department officers.
He was 21.
The shooting took place 1:50 p.m. Feb. 10 in the 800 block of Claiborne Street in J.C. Napier Homes just outside downtown.
Based on all the information given, it is my opinion that the gunshot wound was self-inflicted and not a homicide, Deering wrote in his 13-page report. The autopsy findings also do not clarify between accident and suicide. ....

The board made the decision at a special meeting called after Gov. Bill Lee’s recent announcement the state would reduce COVID-19 mandates and move toward reopening.
Students can still wear masks on the bus if they choose. 
The board voted to keep the current school district guidelines for inside school facilities, which require students to wear masks if they are not at least three feet apart. 
“I would like to see us leave the indoor policy we have remain in place for the remainder of the school year,” said board member Patricia Hudson. “It has proven to be helpful.”  ....
