20-year-old Charles Eugene Hardin Jr. caused a domestic disturbance with his mother, Victoria Hardin, and his 13-year-old sister at their 25th Avenue North residence late July 24th. The neighbors observed Victoria and Charles having a heated argument over the attack, prompting them to call the police. When they arrived, they spoke with Victoria, who told them that she did not see the attack but that her daughter and Sierra Blount, a witness, said Charles had punched her.
Blount added that she heard Victoria and Charles arguing, so she went to see what was happening. Victoria stated this was when she saw Charles punch his 13-year-old sister in the face. His sister provided the same story, saying she argued with Charles over food. She stated the argument escalated when he struck her, leaving a bruise on her cheek. Charles denied hitting his little sister during the argument. Charles Hardin Jr. was deemed the primary aggressor and was taken into custody for domestic assault on July 25th.
Charles Eugene Hardin Jr. was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on July 25th, charged with domestic assault. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $1,500.
