Drunk & Disorderly Arrests & Mugshots in Music City – Nashville, TN
As 21-year-old David Turner was being taken into custody for an aggravated domestic assault, he put his hands behind his back but then yelled, “SIKE!” and ran away from police, making it about 30 yards before he was tackled by officers.
34-year-old Jordan Michael Votruba was with his wife, Ashley Votruba, at the Wild Beave in downtown Nashville when the couple was kicked out of the bar due to a disturbance. As they were walking back to the Courtyard by Marriott hotel, his wife walked ahead of him to show her frustration with him. She was far enough ahead that a group of men asked if she was lost, and as Jordan caught up, he heard their conversation and pushed her, causing officers to be flagged down, and everyone went about their night. After arriving at their hotel, the argument re-ignited. Jordan reportedly grabbed the back of his wife’s neck, slamming her into the counter, leaving a bruise on her chin, which was documented by officers. Against his will, Vortruba was taken into custody and charged with domestic assault.
Metro Nashville Police came upon a blue Hyundai Accent parked in the middle of a lane of travel at 5th & Broadway in the early hours of Saturday morning. As they approached the vehicle, 24-year-old Maria Takele also approached the car and stated she parked in the middle of the road because someone had hit her car earlier in a parking garage. Takele appeared to be extremely intoxicated and admitted she had been drinking prior to moving her car to the roadway. She performed poorly on field sobriety tests and was charged with DUI.
62-year-old Maria Medina Perez reportedly and her roommate, Jennifer Sandoval, were in an argument on February 3 after Maria took Jennifer’s clothes out of the dryer and walked all over them on the ground.

Maria then kicked Jennifer’s dog.
20-year-old Kayla Johnson-Walker and Milton Brown ended their romantic relationship in late January after dating for about six months. Kayla reportedly continued to call Milton, and he ignored the attempts at communication. On January 30, Kayla suddenly appeared at his residence, and an argument ensued. Kayla left but returned a short time later. Milton looked out his window to see her scratching the word “FUCKU’ into the roof of his vehicle. As he went outside, he realized she had also slashed his two rear tires. Kayla called Smyrna PD to confess she had just “keyed her boyfriend’s car” and the call was matched to this open incident.
28-year-old Oneil Cunningham is charged with beating the mother of his child after their baby rolled off the bed. He reportedly pulled her hair and punched her in the face and body.

25-year-old Marina Akladious was booked this week on an outstanding warrant charging her with harassment. The 2021 warrant alleges that she continued to send her ex-boyfriend, Peter Zaree, threatening and harassing text messages despite being asked to stop and being served with an order of protection that disallowed any communications. The victim blocked the numbers she used, but she continuously texted from new numbers to harass him.
52-year-old APSU Chemistry Lab Manager Ronald Palmer was jailed Friday after a student said she walked in on him masturbating in his office with the door open to the hallway. Police made contact with Palmer, who refused to answer any questions. The student alerted another Chemistry to the incident, and she called campus police. The student says Palmer was reclined back in his chair with his head back, eyes closed, and aggressively pleasuring himself with his right hand.
51-year-old Antonio Washington was taken into custody Saturday morning in downtown Nashville after Metro Nashville Police said he was “obstructing a passageway” — which seems to be refuted by photos and videos from the scene. During the interaction, it was noted he was non-verbal and used a notepad to communicate with a large presence of officers who confronted him. Officers told him he could not be stationary or sit on the sidewalk and panhandle without a permit and that he would have to be in constant movement. He refused and communicated that he would not leave the edge of the sidewalk and dared them to arrest him. Officers then placed him into custody, but not before stripping clothing from his body in 20-degree weather, as officers wore winter coats. A statement from MNPD reads, in part, “The sweatshirt he was wearing needed to be temporarily taken off so other blankets underneath could be removed. It was quickly put back on.” The initial call came from Downtown Ambassadors, who believed him to have a knife, but it was only a lighter.
Security Staff at the Union Station Hotel in downtown Nashville were holding down 38-year-old Ryon Buchman on the lobby floor when Metro Nashville Police responded to their call for assistance late Sunday night. He was extremely intoxicated and became aggressive with security, which led to his detention. He was eventually taken into custody and charged with public intoxication.
