22-year-old Corey BrownFRANKLIN, Tenn. – Police have arrested a man in connection with a violent home invasion in which the victim was brutally beaten.
Police arrested 22-year-old Corey Brown late Tuesday night. He was charged with especially aggravated burglary and aggravated assault.
Police said Brown was one of three men who forced their way into a home on South Carothers Parkway and beat the victim on Monday afternoon. Police said one of the suspects discharged a shotgun during the attack, but no one was hit.
Three long guns were recovered from the home where Brown was arrested.
