18-year-old Jemiya Annae Dandridge had an altercation with Jayla Shephard at her Jason Drive residence on July 15th. Shephard called 911, advising that Dandridge came to her house to fight another female. She added that while Dandridge argued with the other woman, she pointed a small black pistol at her. Shephard said that when Dandridge was leaving, she fired a single round, which made Shephard fear for her safety. After Shephard alerted the authorities, responding officers observed Dandridge driving in a black Dodge Charger on Una Antioch Pike. Officers conducted an investigative stop, where Dandridge was Mirandized and detained. Shortly after, officers performed a “show-up” and positively identified Dandridge as the person in question. Officers then noticed a handgun inside a large purse in the front passenger seat that had a bag of marijuana in it, which Dandridge claimed was hers. During a subsequent search, officers discovered two additional bags of marijuana, weighing approximately 15 grams, inside a small black purse with $294, multiple packs of rolling papers, and 7 grams worth of “burnt blunts.” Dandridge was taken into custody for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, felony possession, weapon possession with intent during an offense, and unlawful use of drug paraphernalia.
Jemiya Annae Dandridge of Hydes Ferry Road in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on July 15th, charged with unlawful drug paraphernalia, weapon possession with intent, possession with intent, and aggravated assault. She is free on a $19,000 bond.
