23-Year-Old Nurse Killed In Wedgewood-Houston Stabbing

NASHVILLE, TN — Tiffany Ferguson, a 23-year-old critical care nurse at St. Thomas West Hospital, was killed in an early-morning stabbing at her apartment in Wedgewood-Houston.

Ferguson was discovered unconscious and stabbed multiple times in her apartment on Wedgewood Park around 5:40 a.m. She was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center and was pronounced dead shortly after her arrival there.

Surveillance footage from the Wedgewood Apartments show a man checking apartment doors, presumably seeking one that's unlocked or easy to open, in the time before Ferguson's death.

The man, who police say robbed Ferguson, was wearing a hoodie, jeans torn between the knee and thigh on the back and boots. Investigators say it appears he arrived and fled on foot.
