37-year-old Manishkumar Kadiya refused to leave the Greyhound Bus Station on Representative John Lewis Way South late May 14th. Upon arrival, staff members pointed him out to officers, advising them that they told him to leave the premises, but he disregarded them. Officers explained to Kadiya that he would be charged with trespassing if he refused to leave the location. They escorted him off the property, and he told them he had nowhere to go, adding that he would return to the bus station once his bus was loading. Officers left and observed him walk back to the station and sit up against the wall on the outside. They confirmed that the location had an active trespass waiver on file. Kadiya was taken into custody for criminal trespass.
Manishkumar Kadiya of Singapore Drive in Birmingham, AL, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on May 15th, charged with criminal trespass. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $500, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave him pre-trial release from their facility.
