42-year-old Joshua Dodson jumped out of an ambulance truck and ran down Highway 100 near Old Hickory Boulevard around 10 a.m. on June 20th. Medics alerted the authorities, who later located Dodson walking on the highway, sweating profusely and acting erratically. Officers noticed Dodson was making nonsensical statements and appeared as if he might run into the woods or traffic at any moment. Then, Dodson told police he had taken “Ice” and Suboxone and was worried that people were after him. While detaining him, Dodson was compliant but continued displaying paranoid behavior. Dodson was deemed a danger to himself and was taken into custody for public intoxication.
Joshua Dodson was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on June 20th, charged with public intoxication. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $100.
