Nashville, TN —A tragic domestic dispute in Nashville has left one woman dead and an entire community reeling with shock and sorrow. Authorities confirmed that 42-year-old Keona Wilson died Monday night, August 25, 2025, following a confrontation at a home on Scalf Drive that escalated into gunfire.
How the Confrontation Began
Investigators say Wilson drove to the residence after noticing her husband’s car parked outside. She reportedly moved the vehicle to the front of the house before knocking on the door.
Inside the home was 42-year-old Keosha Geer, a woman Wilson suspected of being romantically involved with her husband. The two began exchanging heated words through the home’s security camera speaker, with Wilson demanding to know if her husband was inside.
Argument Escalates to Gunfire
What started as a tense exchange soon turned violent. Police say Wilson attempted to push her way inside. At that point, Geer allegedly fired a gunshot through the closed door, narrowly missing Wilson.
Wilson eventually made it inside the home, where a physical fight broke out between the two women. During the struggle, another shot was fired — this one striking Wilson in the stomach.
Wilson’s Final Moments
Despite her injuries, Wilson managed to get into her husband’s car and drive away from the house. She reached the Madison Police Precinct, where she flagged down an officer for help.
Emergency responders rushed her to Skyline Medical Center, but doctors were unable to save her. She was pronounced dead shortly after arrival.
Investigation Still Underway
As of Tuesday, police said no charges have been filed in the case. Detectives are carefully reviewing all evidence — including security footage, witness statements, and forensic findings — before submitting the case to the Davidson County District Attorney’s Office for review.
Authorities have not yet said whether the shooting may be considered self-defense or a criminal act.
Loved Ones and Community in Mourning
The news of Wilson’s death has left her family, friends, and neighbors heartbroken. She is being remembered as a caring woman who loved deeply and stood by those close to her.
“This is a terrible loss,” one community member said. “Keona was a kind person who didn’t deserve this. It’s devastating to see a disagreement spiral into something so tragic.”
Condolences and prayers have poured in on social media, with many urging peace, compassion, and healing for both families affected.
A Tragic Lesson
Wilson’s death serves as a sobering reminder of how quickly domestic conflicts can escalate when fueled by anger and firearms. What began as a confrontation over love and loyalty ended in irreversible loss — leaving two families changed forever.
The investigation remains active, and the community now waits for answers — and for justice.
