Man threatens to kill family, girlfriend

TMP Reports


A man wanting money for crack cocaine threatened his girlfriend and his absent family during a domestic disagreement Thanksgiving Day, sheriff’s deputies reported.

The East Nashville man demanded money for crack cocaine from girlfriend Donna Harmon at her Old Woodbury Highway home, Deputy Sedric Fields reported. When she refused, to give him any money, he pulled out a razor blade and threatened to cut her throat. He slashed a couch he owned.

He returned to the living room and “demanded that she eat a Blockbuster receipt or he would cut her throat and bash her head in with a hammer,” Fields reported, adding he threatened to kill his mother and sister.

Harmon gave him $20 to leave. He left a note saying he would kill her and others and perhaps himself.

She filed a report saying he was an endangerment to himself. No charges were placed.

In an unrelated case, Deputy Matt Clagg reported Anthony Leo Garcia Jr., 43, of Humble, Texas, and Wayne Dockery of the Outpost store on Epps Mill Road accused each other of threats early Thanksgiving Day at the store.

When Garcia pulled into a no parking zone, Dockery told him he couldn’t park there. Dockery accused Garcia of threatening him.

Dockery got a bottle of ammonia to defend himself but Garcia grabbed the bottle and tossed it at Dockery’s shoulder, the deputy reported. Dockery then grabbed a tire stick to defend himself. He suffered a cut on his finger.

Garcia left and called the sheriff’s office from Love’s truck stop across the street. Garcia told deputies Dockery blocked him in and threatened to spray him with a liquid. Garcia tried to apologize.

No one was charged.
