24-year-old Samantha Dorais was involved in a domestic altercation with her boyfriend and father of her child, Sean Hogan, at the Moxy Nashville Downtown hotel near 3rd Avenue South on July 3rd. When officers arrived on the scene, they contacted the couple inside the room who were visiting from Massachusetts. Officers first spoke with Hogan, who told officers that they were downtown drinking when Dorais started yelling loudly and freaking out. Hogan stated they both were verbally arguing as well. Hogan then informed officers that when they returned to their room, Dorais became even more aggressive and started yelling louder. Since Hogan did not want the incident to escalate, he called 911 for assistance. Hogan then claimed that Dorais had punched him on the right side of his face while he was on the phone with dispatch. Officers observed the swelling and redness to the right side of his ear. Officers then spoke with Dorais, who claimed that nothing ever became physical and that they were just arguing verbally. Due to Hogans’s injuries and the statements made, Dorais was taken into custody for domestic assault.
