After sitting in a pickup truck in the parking lot for approximately four minutes, he came out holding an AR - 15 - style rifle and fatally shot two people outside the Waffle House. He went inside the restaurant and continued to fire, killing a third person and fatally injuring a fourth, who died at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center, with four others treated for related injuries. One customer, 29 - year - old James Shaw Jr., who suffered a bullet graze wound, hid near the restaurant 's bathrooms, rushed the shooter, and wrestled the rifle away. The gunman fled on foot, leaving behind his rifle and ammunition. Suspect Police arrested Travis Jeffrey Reinking ( born February 1, 1989 ) the day after the shooting. Reinking was from Morton, Illinois. He had a history of erratic conduct and delusions. In May 2016, sheriff 's deputies in Tazewell County responded to a call from Reinking 's parents in the parking lot of a drugstore, where a paramedic said Reinking had delusions that Taylor Swift was personally stalking him and hacking his phone. The report noted : `` Travis is hostile toward police and does not recognize police authority. Travis also possesses several firearms. '' In 2017, he lived in an apartment above his father 's crane rental business in Tremont, Illinois. In June 2017, an employee of the business called police, saying Reinking had come downstairs carrying a rifle, wearing a pink dress, and using an expletive before tossing the rifle in his trunk and leaving the building. On another occasion around the same time, a public pool director called police to report Reinking had come to the pool in a `` pink women 's housecoat '' and then exposed himself to lifeguards. In July 2017, the U.S. Secret Service arrested Reinking near the White House after he crossed a barrier and refused to leave. The Secret Service said Reinking had said he `` wanted to set up a meeting with the president ''. The report notes he made reference to being a `` sovereign citizen ''. Reinking was charged with unlawful entry ( a misdemeanor ) and entered into a deferred prosecution agreement in July 2017, in which Reinking performed 32 hours of community service and was ordered to stay away from the White House. In November 2017, the court dismissed the case after Reinking successfully completed the program. Following Reinking 's arrest, Illinois authorities revoked his state firearms authorization and seized four of his weapons ( including the AR - 15 used in the Nashville shooting, two other rifles, and a handgun ). According to the sheriff of Tazewell County, Illinois, Reinking 's father, who held a valid state authorization card, asked sheriff 's deputies whether he could keep the guns, and they allowed him to do so after he assured them `` he would keep them secure and away from '' his son. Both the Nashville police chief and the Tazewell County sheriff believe that Reinking 's father returned the guns to his son sometime before the shooting. According to a spokesman for the Nashville police, Reinking moved to the Nashville area in the autumn of 2017 and was employed as a crane and construction worker from January 2018 until April 2018. He was fired on April 3, 2018 for claiming that people, including other employees, were `` after him ''. According to police, four days before the Waffle House shooting, Reinking stole a BMW X6 from a Brentwood, Tennessee, dealership ; police used GPS to track the car to Reinking 's apartment complex and located the keyfob in his apartment. Aftermath Apprehension of suspect The suspect left no notes behind. A manhunt for Reinking ensued, with police warning the public that he was potentially armed with two other weapons. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation added him to its `` most wanted '' list and offered a reward for information leading to his arrest. Reinking was captured the next day, about 34 hours after the shooting, after a construction worker reported him entering a wooded area close to the Waffle House. Police said Reinking was carrying a backpack with a semiautomatic firearm and ammunition. Reactions from public officials Shortly after the shooting, Nashville Mayor David Briley said, `` It 's a tragic day for our city anytime people lose their lives at the hands of a gunman. '' Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam said he was `` deeply saddened by the tragic incident in Antioch early this morning, and we mourn the lives taken in this senseless act of violence ''. Congressman Jim Cooper called for restricting `` widespread civilian access to military - grade assault weapons ''. Steve Anderson, the chief of the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department, said that police `` suspect some mental issues '' but that the motive remained unclear. Mayor Briley attended church with Shaw on April 22. Fund raising for victims By May 7, Shaw had raised $227,000 via GoFundMe for a fund to help the shooting victims. That day, Tennessee State University, Shaw 's Alma Mater, set up a scholarship in his name.
