Around midnight, Wilson County sheriff deputies were called to investigate the shooting at a house on Iroquois Road. On their way to the shooting, they saw a person standing in a field off U.S. Highway 301 near Weaver Road. Authorities later learned that person was involved in the shooting.
According to authorities, a second person, who was armed with a handgun, was located in a nearby wooded area.
When authorities arrived at the house, they found the home had been shot with multiple rounds from a AK-47 assault rifle. Three other vehicles were also shot. Deputies say the residents who were inside the home returned fire during the time their house was being shot at.
Authorities have arrested two people in connection with the incident -- 21-year-old Jonathan Luther Flowers and 24-year-old Jonathan Freeman Flowers III. Both men are at the Wilson County Jail.
