CANTON — A man who is alleged to have shot his wife during a domestic dispute outside a nightclub has been arrested, the authorities said.

Clavin White was arrested and charged with domestic violence and aggravated assault, officials aid.

Police received a call around 3 a.m. Saturday concerning gunshots outside of a nightclub on South Hickory Street in front of the old movie theater, said Canton Police Chief Otha Brown. 

On the scene, they found a woman who said she had been shot in her side by her husband, who would be identified as White.
