31-year-old Tyler Johnson was caught driving under the influence after being involved in a car accident at the BNA ride-share lot on Terminal Drive on August 22nd. Police officers were called to the scene after reports of a possible drunk driving incident. Upon arrival, they found Johnson using his vehicle for support outside. As the officers approached, Johnson began removing bags from his car. Officers determined that this demonstrated that Johnson had control of the vehicle. The car appeared to have been involved in a recent accident at an unknown location. The officers also noted damage to the front passenger wheel, resulting in a flat tire. It seemed that Johnson had been involved in an accident and had left the scene. Upon further investigation, officers ran the vehicle tags and learned it was rented from Sixt Rental Company. Officers then noticed a faint smell of alcohol as they approached Johnson. Officers also saw a partially consumed Voodoo Ranger alcoholic beverage inside the vehicle. Johnson, who was sitting outside the car, was observed to have urinated on himself, had bloodshot eyes, and slurred speech. Security footage confirmed that Johnson had driven from the bus area to the ride-share lot. Due to his difficulty standing, Johnson needed the officers’ assistance. During a conversation with Johnson, the officers detected the smell of alcohol on his breath. Johnson agreed to perform sobriety tests but performed poorly on all of them. Based on his test performances and overall behavior, Johnson was arrested for driving under the influence and having an open container of alcohol on August 23rd.

Tyler Johnson breaks into park, distributes vodka and marijuana to minors
18-year-old Tyler Johnson was taken into custody for burglary, setting fire to property, and contributing to the delinquency of a minor on June 9th. Around 10 a.m., Gracie Wimsatt, a Pleasant Green Park Pool employee, alerted the authorities that when they were opening the pool this morning, she noticed the lock and chain for the front gate was missing, adding that it was locked and secured by the staff around 7:45 p.m. on June 8th. When she entered the pool area to see if anyone was still there, she discovered the large trashcan by the poolside had caught on fire with a small grill inside, and two tables, one plastic and one metal, were destroyed.
The total value of the damaged property was $455. When officers reviewed the flock camera, they identified one of the individuals, a minor, who stated he was at a party at the pool hosted by a male who went by the name “TR,” later identified as Johnson. He added that he was drinking and smoking marijuana at the party. Johnson agreed to meet with police at the precinct, where he advised that he messaged someone on Instagram who was selling a key to the park. He explained that he met the unidentified male in a white SUV at the park, who left the key near the bushes. Johnson stated, “I opened both of the gates myself. I threw the chain, and I am not sure where it went.” Then, he admitted to bringing marijuana and vodka to the party, and when he was leaving, he threw his small metal grill into the plastic trashcan.
