NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Employees said a domestic dispute broke the glass of a high-rise hotel in downtown Nashville during Memorial Day weekend.

The incident happened at the Omni Hotel in downtown, located at Rep. John Lewis Way South.

A marketing spokesperson said on X/Twitter that no one was hurt. The suspect, Jason L. O'Donnell, was arrested for domestic assault, according to a Metro Nashville Police Department affidavit.

The affidavit stated this happened on the 21st floor of the hotel and shattered the double-pane hotel window. Police were first called in response to a large object thrown from a window. When they arrived, police said a female victim told them she and O'Donnell had been in a verbal altercation.

That escalated into O'Donnell throwing a pillow at her and then throwing a large object toward the window, according to the affidavit. The object ended up being a table, the affidavit stated.

Damage is estimated between $20 and $30,000, hotel staff told police. O'Donnell was intoxicated at the time of the incident, police said.

Nashville music school offering lessons for just 50 cents for families with limited income

Music lessons for just 50 cents! A Nashville music school has been providing that to area students for over 40 years including for the city's current mayor. As a child, I always wanted to take piano lessons. I was able to for about 6 months but had to stop due to family finances. I would have loved to have had access to a program like this at the W. O. Smith Music School.
