FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 25, 2008 West Precinct detectives continue in their efforts to identify the five masked gunmen responsible for robbing and kidnapping three persons from a home in the 4000 block of Harding Place between 9 p.m.-9:15 p.m. Sunday night.
The five suspects entered through an unlocked front door. The 48-year-old homeowner, who was in the living room, thought it was a joke and pushed away a gun that was pointed at him. That prompted one of the suspects to fire a shot into a piece of furniture. The suspects robbed the victims of computer equipment and money. They then forced the homeowner, his 19-year-old daughter, and her 19-year-old boyfriend into the homeowners Toyota Highlander SUV. Three of the suspects also got into that vehicle while the two others followed in a silver Buick Century.
The victims were taken to two ATMs in the Green Hills area from where the suspects withdrew money. They were released unharmed in a subdivision near Hillsboro High School. They walked to a residence from where police were called at 9:26 p.m. Sunday.
The silver Buick was recovered nearby. It had been reported stolen from the Edgehill area.
The Toyota Highlander has not been recovered. It is a silver 2006 model and bears Tennessee license plate number 453-SJN.
The five suspects are described as black males in their late teens. At this point in the investigation, detectives do not know why this particular home was chosen.
Anyone with information on this case is urged to contact the West Precinct at 862-7747 or Crime Stoppers at 74-CRIME. Callers to Crime Stoppers can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward.
Goblins are getting frisky, we had an unoccupied breakin three doors down from me last week. Took the plasma TV.
Just think if the Messiah with his cult of personality dared address black illegitimacy and the dearth of fatherhood.
hell, he's just gonna enable more of it with my tax dollar
it worked well enough for him....he's now president of the United States of America by Gawd.
man....sucks
they come around my house, there shall be no quater given
We have a very PC police chief, I'm not optimistic.
Nashville voted Obama in slightly higher percentage than did our twin sister Austin Texas.
Hard to believe sometimes I'm still in Dixie.
Belle Meade IS a secluded area. I pray for everyone’s safety there. Guess the ‘goblins’ think they are now entitled, huh? Gawd......I fear for my own family....who would be considered ‘rich’. Even ourselves.
"The five suspects entered through an unlocked front door."
Pretty risky just to get the $300 from each person’s bank account. Meth will do that I guess.
“there shall be no quater given “
That should be our rallying cry..r
Home invasion is the wave of the future. Get lots of goodies, no resistance usually, and it’s usually perpetrated on little old ladies around here (Little Rock). Best to keep doors locked, have steel doors of course, and a gun next to you on the sofa.
***The five suspects are described as black males in their late teens.***
You’ll get that in a state like Tennessee.
Don’t know whats happening in Nashville. I’ve been approached twice in 2 weeks by people who have not had good intentions. Fortunately I was able to leave the situation before it got bad.
Good thing they didn’t hit Algore’s house. Can’t buy many drugs with Carbon Credits...
Belle Meade is totally accessible to anyone. Lots of trees, many of the houses set back, so I can see how it would be targeted. Also, one of the richest zip codes in the US.
Amazingly they escaped with their lives.
Nashville has gone from bad to worse in the last few years.
3 black teens ain’t meth hoss
more like just plain ol rob whitey
i’m betting there was knowledge thru the victim’s kid who probably attends or attended public school which at high school level in Nashville means ghetto or white confused wiggah crap except the magnets
I mean unless my very good black man with a family landscape sub contractor is chilling in my den, I’m not gonna think black dudes in my den in face masks are jokes...you know
reminds me of when I lived in Mississippi
even more likely in my homestate of Mississippi...about 40%
These two 19 year-olds are damn lucky they didn’t wind up like that young couple in Knoxville...
yep....everyone one in my family who can knows how to use the firearms....
shame to have to live that way
If the suspects were withdrawing money, why did they need to take the victims with them? Just asking the obvious.
PIN numbers
Move to Kingsport....
I’m sure Al Gore isn’t a suspect! There’s no way that fat slob could pull off a robbery!
Stay safe.
