The Manchester police have launched a manhunt for three gunmen who robbed a supermarket in Nashville on Tuesday (November 22).

A fourth man was fatally shot by a licensed firearm holder during the incident.

Police reports are that about 6:30 PM, four men entered the supermarket, ordered customers to lay on the ground and took cell phones and over $500,000 in cash.

The gunmen also stole a licensed firearm and ammunition.

Upon leaving the supermarket, a licensed firearm holder challenged the gunmen and one of them was shot.

He was later found dead. His accomplices escaped in a motor car.

Police believe the men are from Clarendon, where there is a State of Emergency.
