Nia Robinson attacks boyfriend in his TSU dorm after learning he cheated on her
23-year-old Nia Robinson had a domestic incident with her boyfriend, Devin Jackson, in his Ford Apartment unit at Tennessee State University in the early hours of April 15th. Upon arrival, officers met with Jackson, who stated he had Robinson staying the night in his room for the last couple of days. Jackson added that this morning, she had woken him up after looking through his phone, accusing him of cheating. Robinson then started punching him in the chest and face repeatedly. Jackson tried to restrain Robinson from hitting him again, so she bit his arm multiple times and kicked him in the legs. Jackson said one of his roommates had overheard the commotion and had come to check on him, and Jackson had his roommate grab his phone from Robinson.
Then, Jackson released Robinson, and she threw his PlayStation controller at his Flatscreen TV, causing it to break. After breaking his TV, she also grabbed his Apple MacBook and destroyed it. Robinson then walked out, during which she slammed the bedroom door, damaging the door frame. She called someone to pick her up and stepped outside, where Jackson’s roommates followed to ensure she did not vandalize his vehicle. Once Robinson left, Jackson realized his car keys, apartment keys, and TSU student ID were missing. He alerted the authorities shortly after. Robinson was taken into custody for theft, vandalism, and domestic assault on April 17th.
