35-year-old Cory Jones was involved in a domestic altercation with his ex-girlfriend, Leteia Claybrooks, while at her Heiman Street residence on August 13th. Claybrooks reported that on that day, she stepped outside due to noise in the home and wanted to make a phone call. Jones came outside, got upset, and confronted Claybrooks, thinking she was up to something. Claybrooks showed him that she was talking to her grandmother, leading Jones to back off and go to his car. After the phone call, Claybrooks told Jones that she no longer wanted to be in a relationship with him, which upset him.
Allegedly, Jones then approached Claybrooks and punched her in the side of her face. Claybrooks claims she lost her balance and fell but maintains that while she was on the ground, Jones stepped on her to get into the car and then drove away from the scene. Claybrooks informed officers that she never lost consciousness but had pain and was seeking a warrant. A warrant was issued, and Jones was later taken into custody for domestic assault on August 17th.
Cory D. Jones of Monticello Drive in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 17th, charged with domestic assault. He is free on a $1,500 bond.
