Javonte Johnson, 28

A man gunned down in a Nashville apartment complex Saturday night appears to be a case of self-defense.

Police said 28-year-old Javonte Johnson tried to rob Howard Bridgeforth at in the Mission Apartments on Saturday.

That's when Bridgeforth pulled out his own gun, opened fire, killing Johnson. An accomplice took off running.

A stray bullet went into a neighbor's apartment, where kids were sitting inside. No one was hurt.

But at least one of the four bullets fired went into a nearby apartment with children inside. Phyllis Richardson showed NewsChannel 5 the shattered glass door in her living room where a bullet hit on Saturday night.

"Oh my God. I am just so thankful that my children didn't get hurt," said Richardson.
