CHURCH HILL — Police believe that a verbal altercation that occurred at a funeral earlier this week escalated into an alleged exchange of gunfire late Monday night that landed two Hawkins County men in jail.Shortly before midnight Monday, the Hawkins County Sheriff’s Office was dispatched to a suspicious person at 1321 Old Union Road in Church Hill, but while en route deputies were informed of a complaint of shots fired from that address.Austin Randall Britt, 18, 123 Woodland Lane, Church Hill, told Hawkins County Central Dispatch that he and Jason Lee Derrick, 40, same address, were being shot at by Mark Richards from 1321 Old Union Road.When deputies arrived at that residence, however, witnesses there said Derrick had fired first.Our partners at the Kingsport Times-News have more on the case.
