Knoxville police have identified the victim from Wednesday's shooting in Park City as Frank Vinson, 49, of Knoxville.
Vinson was found dead from an apparent gunshot wound and the shooting remains under investigation, a police department spokesperson said in a press release.
Officers responded to the 2700 block of East Fifth Avenue around 2 a.m. Wednesday to the shooting, which happened outside a home, a police department spokesperson said in a press release.
There were reports of multiple people running away from the scene after the shooting, according to the release.

Knox County Sheriff's Office deputies later found the sedan, and there was another man with non-life-threatening injuries inside. He was taken to UT Medical.
No suspects have been identified yet. Investigators from the KPD Violent Crimes Unit are continuing to interview possible witnesses, the release stated.
