Nashville Police identify man wanted for questioning after deadly Saturday morning stabbings

Paul Trapeni, 21, and Clayton Beathard, 22, were killed outside of The Dogwood Nashville early Saturday morning.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Nashville Metro Police have identified a man wanted for questioning following a deadly stabbing Saturday morning in Midtown.  

Investigators need the public's assistance tracking down 23-year-old Micheal D. Mosley after he has been identified as a man wanted for questioning in regards to the deadly stabbing outside of The Dogwood Bar at 1907 Division Street Saturday morning.

Mosley is the person who was talking with the woman at the bottom of the screen in the video that has been released by the MNPD. 

Mosley was last known to have lived in Pegram, but efforts to track him down have been unsuccessful.

Police are calling the three men and woman “acquaintances.” 

Paul Trapeni, 21, and  Clayton Beathard, 22,  were killed outside of The Dogwood Nashville early Saturday morning. 

Beathard is the brother of a NFL quarterback C.J. Beathard and the grandson of a NFL hall-of-famer Bobby Beathard. 

Police said it began with an argument over a woman inside the bar and then turned physical outside. 

News4 spoke with a close friend of the Beathard family who has known them for nearly a decade. 

“The Beathard family, in general, is pretty much like my second family. There truly are no better people in my opinion,” said Joshua Smith. 

Both Trapeni and Beathard were graduates from Battle Ground Academy.   

Smith said the community is grieving over the horrific loss of two young lives.  

“I’ve heard nothing but great things about them. They were just taken away so soon. It’s really sad. It’s almost unbearable to think that it could’ve been any one of us at any given time.” 

A third victim, AJ Bethurum, 21, suffered injuries to his eye and arm and is continuing the recover.

Anyone with any information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.   

The Dogwood along with neighboring businesses and local business owners have come together to offer a $20,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
