50-year-old Percy Welton Ford Jr. was taken into custody for two counts of violating an order of protection on June 20th. On June 19th, Percy’s wife, Courtney Ford, alerted the authorities to her Brookstone Court residence. Courtney informed them that around 4:17 p.m., Percy had shown up, entered the home, brought in some food, and took their dog before leaving. Courtney said that Percy did not speak to her and that she only recognized him after he got into his car and left. Officers confirmed that she had an active order of protection against Percy and a warrant was issued for his arrest.
On June 20th, officers were called back to the residence. When they arrived, they located Percy, who told them that, to his knowledge, the order of protection had expired on June 4th and gave them documents stating such. Then, officers confirmed that the order was active and had been extended on June 4th since they were still going through their divorce. He was then detained for the occurrences.
Percy Welton Ford of Premier Drive in Murfreesboro, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on June 21st, charged with order of protection violation. He is free on a $2,000 bond.
