A man in Sparta, Tennessee told police in Murfreesboro that while breaking up a domestic violence fight in Sparta he was shot in the leg. The man told police that after being shot he decided to come to Murfreesboro to seek treatment for the gunshot wound because he did not want to be treated in Sparta. The man said he picked Murfreesboro to seek treatment because his sister lives here. Officers questioned the story and later found out that 30-year old Jimmy B. Henry was wanted on a Capias by police in Sparta. Officers in Murfreesboro quickly arrested Henry after he was treated at Middle Tennessee Medical Center.
