CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – A Clarksville man has been charged with aggravated assault after he allegedly shot at a family in their front yard.
According to an arrest warrant, a couple, their two young children, and the children’s grandmother were in their front yard on on David Ray Court Sept. 26 when they saw a dark-colored Chrysler 300 drive by their home.
The victim knew the car was driven by a man he knew as as “Jamaica” and Jamaica’s girlfriend. Jamaica, later identified as 35-year-old Jermaine Shaw, reportedly got out of the car and began yelling expletives at the father.
The victim said Shaw then pointed a handgun at the man and his family and fired several shots in their direction before fleeing in his vehicle.
Shaw was identified as the suspect and charged with four counts of aggravated assault. His bond was set at $500,000.
