20-year-old Ashley Nikole Robinson had a domestic altercation with the father of her child, Masaiyis White, at their Bridgecrest Drive townhouse on April 18th. Robinson called the police, stating she was assaulted by White, adding that they had been arguing since April 15th regarding childcare for their son. Robinson told officers that White had brought their son to her grandmother’s house to drop him off, but she told White he could not leave him there because she had work in the morning. Then, Robinson stated that after he dropped their kid off, she tried to enter his car without his permission. Robinson stated she was trying to ask White to take her to the store, but he would not let her in. Robinson said the door was locked, so she tried pulling it and would not let go. This prompted White to drive away to get her off his car. Robinson then said he exited his vehicle, walked over to her, and slapped her cell phone out of her hand. Then, Robinson said she threw a rock at him, causing them to fall into the bushes.
When officers spoke with White, he confirmed that they had been arguing about childcare and admitted to slapping her phone away from her after she threw a rock at the side of his head. He said that she rushed towards him and pushed him into the bushes, where she continued to throw rocks at him. White said he was trying to leave the complex when she jumped on his car, trying to break his windshield. After discovering she had a previous domestic incident where she assaulted him and admitted to attacking him, officers deemed her as the primary aggressor. Robinson was then taken into custody for domestic assault.
After being released, Robinson had a domestic incident with her mother, Ida Wade, at their Bridgecrest Drive townhouse on July 23rd. Responding officers spoke with Wade, who stated that she and Robinson argued because she would not let Robinson use her vehicle. Wade explained that Robinson had become angry and started throwing items around the house. After this, Wade stated she tried to leave, but Robinson followed her. While Wade was walking across the street, she said that Robinson shouted profanities at her. Then, Robinson reportedly grabbed a fire extinguisher and sprayed Wade’s vehicle before spraying her with it. Wade added that after this, Robinson’s friend arrived in a silver sedan that Robinson later stood on top of to continue shouting at her. Then, she said Robinson retrieved what appeared to be a beer can from her friend’s car and threw it at her but missed. Wade then advised officers that Robinson got a pair of scissors, approached her, and lunged at her, placing her in fear of bodily injury. Afterward, Wade told them Robinson walked away and left with her friend. Then, Wade provided officers with footage from her ring doorbell camera, corroborating her statements. A warrant was then obtained for Robinson’s arrest. Robinson was later taken into custody for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon on August 4th.
Ashley Nikole Robinson of Bridgecrest Drive in Antioch, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on April 18th, charged with domestic assault. She is free on a $1,000 bond.
