NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Following another arrest last week, Metro Nashville police are seeking to bring more suspects on their “Most Wanted” list into custody.
The list is updated every Wednesday on the Metro Nashville Police Department Criminal Warrants Division Facebook page . Each week it features 10 people who police said are considered to be some of the city’s “most violent” offenders.
Crime in Nashville: Homicide down 70%, auto theft up 123% a month into 2024
Of the suspects on this week’s list, half are wanted on homicide, attempted homicide or murder charges. At least six months have passed since most of the incidents took place, with one investigation stretching all the way back to August 2021.
The rest of Nashville’s “Most Wanted” suspects are accused of crimes such as rape, child endangerment and aggravated assault. While the search for these suspects continues, the “Most Wanted” list has aided police in several arrests.
A woman who investigators said caused a head-on crash while driving on the wrong side of Interstate 40 with her child in her car was taken into custody on outstanding warrants for aggravated child endangerment and aggravated assault last week.
