A suspect has been arrested in connection with the shooting that sent multiple gunshot rounds into the home of controversial Pastor Greg Locke on the night of Sept. 3. Locke is the pastor of Global Vision Bible Church in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee. The church recently relocated to a warehouse in Lebanon, Tennessee.

Authorities identified the suspect as Tyler Poole, 20, of Hermitage, Tennessee. The charges against Pool include one count of aggravated assault, four counts of reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon, and two counts of vandalism.

The Wilson County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest on social media, writing:

On Dec. 4, 2024, detectives with the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office Criminal Investigations Division, with assistance from the Metro Nashville Police Department, executed a search warrant at 8234B Terry Lane, Hermitage, TN, in reference to the shooting that occurred on Sept. 3, 2024, at 1729 Chandler Road, Mt. Juliet, TN.

“During the execution of the search warrant, 20-year-old Tyler Poole, of Hermitage, TN, was taken into custody on an outstanding indictment,” the statement added.

Poole is currently being held on a $50,000 bond. The sheriff’s office said the “investigation is ongoing,” and local and federal law enforcement agencies are working together to ensure the investigation is completed.

Security cameras captured the shooting, which sent multiple high-capacity rounds into Locke’s residence. One of Locke’s children was inside the home at the time of the shooting but was not injured. It remains unclear if the shooter was aware of Locke’s whereabouts.

During a worship service on Sept. 8, Locke recounted how close his family came to danger. His wife and some family members returned home only moments after the shooting. Locke said he arrived a minute later.

Locke shared an audio clip of the gunfire captured on security cameras, telling his congregation, “Sixty rounds in less than three seconds, 60 of them. The detective said he’d never seen that many spent shell casings in a drive-by shooting situation like this.”
