Smyrna Police are investigating a shots-fired incident.

On September 20, 2025, at approximately 2:49 p.m., Smyrna PD responded to the area of the 500 block of Barley Court within the Sunnyside Development for a report of a vehicle collision with shots fired. Officers responded to the scene and confirmed no one was struck by gunfire; however, the incident left several unoccupied vehicles damaged as a result of the vehicle collision.
