NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WSMV) - A woman is accused of pointing a long gun at another woman who was attempting to retrieve her food delivery order that was dropped off at the wrong house in Nashville, according to an arrest affidavit.

Officers responded to a report of an assault involving a gun in the 1800 block of Blair Boulevard on Thursday.

As they arrived, the victim told officers she had ordered food through DoorDash. The victim said the delivery driver mistakenly left the order at the wrong address.

The photo from the delivery driver indicated the food was dropped off at a nearby address. So, the victim rang the doorbell and waited for someone to answer in order to retrieve her food.

The affidavit states that 50-year-old Natalie D. Cross answered the door and allegedly pointed a long gun at the victim. Two witnesses told officers they saw the encounter take place.

Later, officers made contact with Cross, who denied pointing the gun at the victim but did admit to possessing multiple guns inside the residence, according to the affidavit.

She’s been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

This could have been avoided had the woman who pointed the gun at the neighbor had told the delivery person that she did not want to take possession of an order that was not hers.

But I am sure she was a stupid witch because she idiotically pointed a gun at a person over food that did not belong to her.

Nobody should defend her.

The solution to the problem is to display the weapon but not poiint it at the person. Why a hand gun is far better in a situation like this than a long gun.

Display is “brandishing”, depending on how it’s done.

Better is to not answer the door if you don’t expect someone.

Two things:
1 lady whose order went to neighbor is a gun seizure nut
2 lady who met stranger at door with her gun is within the law so long as she did not point it at the person on the porch. If she did point without any threat then she is a nut and belongs in a home.

Coppers were looking for a reason to seize ALL guns.

Keep in mind that laws and their definitions vary state to state.

It doesn’t say if the woman who ordered the food ever got it.
