23-year-old Morgan Beier was involved in an altercation with her boyfriend, Thomas Riddle, at Pins Mechanical Co. on September 8th. When officers arrived and spoke with Thomas, he said he and his friend Javante were hanging out at Pins Mechanical Co. Thomas stated Morgan showed up and started an argument. During the argument, Morgan lashed out, pushing and slapping him. This led to her cutting Thomas’ nose with her nails, which officers observed.
During this, Morgan knocked down the Jumbo Jenga tower they were playing with and hit Javante in the head with one of the bricks. For reference, a single Jumbo Jenga brick is the size of a forearm. Morgan proceeded to throw four of the Jumbo Jenga bricks at Javante’s head, which caused a “golf ball” sized knot on his head. Morgan then fled to the DoubleTree Hilton hotel, where she knew Thomas’ car was, after being kicked out twice by staff at Pins Mechanical Co. Once she arrived, she went inside Thomas’ car, tossed everything inside it, stole $200, and broke his windshield. Thomas showed officers text messages of Morgan admitting that she did this. When officers made contact with Morgan, she was taken into custody and transported to booking, where she was charged with vandalism, domestic assault, and aggravated assault on September 9th.
Morgan Bailey Beier was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on September 9th, charged with vandalism, domestic assault with bodily injury, burglary of a motor vehicle, and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $11,500.
