21-year-old Shemar Robinson was spotted driving recklessly and pointing weapons at security at the Jason Aldean’s Rooftop Bar on Broadway on July 22nd. Police officers were near the Tin Roof on Broadway when they saw Robinson driving at high speed and approaching the intersection at 4th Avenue South. They also observed Robinson veering off the road and almost hitting a taxi van in the parking lane as he drove through the intersection. Robinson then stopped at Jason Aldean’s Rooftop Bar, where officers saw him getting out of his vehicle and yelling at the bar’s security staff. The officers approached Robinson, suspecting that he was armed. Robinson then revealed two firearms and progressed towards the security staff. Observing Robinson’s body language, the officers drew their weapons, at which point he stopped and complied with the officers. Robinson informed the officers that his girlfriend could drive his vehicle so it wouldn’t be towed. Robinson then admitted that he was the only one intoxicated and that she was sober so she could drive the vehicle. Robinson was then taken into custody for possession of a handgun while under the influence, driving under the influence, reckless driving, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Shemar Robinson was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on July 22nd, charged with possession of a handgun under the influence, driving under the influence, reckless driving, and aggravated assault. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $75,000.
