30-year-old Navonte Parks had a domestic altercation with the mother of his child, Taineshua House, and their daughter during a school soccer game at Frederick Douglass Park in the early hours of August 24th. House told the police she was sitting behind her daughter on the benches, and Parks was sitting on her right side. House said that she asked Parks to turn their daughter around so she could wipe her face. This was when Parks grabbed their daughter’s arm, swung her forcefully around to face House, and became upset with her. House added that Parks started yelling and punched her once on the right side of her face. Their daughter’s coach, Karl Hampton, saw the scuffle and separated them.
Officers then spoke with their daughter, who said Parks grabbed her by the arm. After this, the police called Hampton, who stated that he heard yelling and saw Parks shoving House, so he intervened and stopped it. Hampton went into detail, saying that he had to hold Parks back from going after House. House wants to press charges for her and her daughter and is seeking an order of protection. Parks was taken into custody for two counts of domestic assault on August 28th.
Navonte L. Parks of Oak Park Drive in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 28th, charged with two counts of domestic assault. He is free on a $3,500 bond.
