Bus Garage Shooting Case Goes Before Grand Jury Monday

A Cumberland County grand jury will convene Monday to hear the case of a man who fatally shot two people at the Cumberland County Bus Garage.

Nostrom last appeared in Cumberland County General Sessions Court in October.

Warren Nostrom, 74, faces two counts of first-degree murder following the shooting deaths of two people at the Cumberland County Bus Garage in September.

Warren Nostrom, 74, faces two counts of first-degree murder following the shooting deaths of two people at the Cumberland County Bus Garage in September.

Authorities charged 74-year-old Warren Nostrom with two counts of First Degree Murder following the death of his 58-year-old ex-wife, Joy Nostrom, and 54-year-old Mark Gunter.

An investigation into the Sept. 14 incident revealed Warren had filed for divorce three weeks prior to the shooting after his ex-wife had filed three separate orders of protection. The relationship began to break down as the 74-year-old Nostrom suspected his ex-wife of having an affair.

Nostrom then drove to the bus garage where his ex-wife worked as a bus driver and shot her and Gunter. That’s when Warren Nostrom shot both of them before turning the gun on himself at the scene.

Warren Nostrom was transported to a Chattanooga hospital for treatment before being taken back to the Cumberland County Justice Center for questioning. His bond was set at $4 million.
