Last updated on Wednesday, August 24, 2016

(NASHVILLE) - Authorities arrested a Nashville man Tuesday after he shot his estranged girlfriend and another woman.

Brown County deputies were called to the 1700 block of Lucas Hollow Road around 4:13 p.m. after receiving a call from one of the victims, saying she had just been shot and the shooter was walking down the road.

When deputies arrived, they located 30-year-old Joshua Asher and arrested him without incident. He was then transported to the Brown County Jail on charges of attempted murder, criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon, battery with serious bodily injury, domestic battery and invasion of privacy.

Deputies say Asher was served with a protective order on behalf of his estranged girlfriend Monday.

EMS treated the two women's gunshot wounds at the scene and then transported them to area hospitals. Both are listed in stable condition.
