NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Metro police is sending the public a reminder to always be on alert. Their Special Victims Division is investigating the second attempted rape case in the area in a week’s time.
Thursday, they released two surveillance pictures of the suspect in the latest case. The attack happened on 11th Avenue North near Charlotte Avenue, in the Capitol View area. Police say a 30-year-old woman was walking home around 1:45 a.m. Saturday when the man grabbed her from behind and knocked her to the ground.
Investigators say he tried to remove her clothing, but she screamed and fought back. A witness yelled from a parking garage across the street causing the suspect to quickly leave.
Detectives are still working to find another man who attacked a 25-year-old woman as she was running on the Cumberland River Greenway near 2nd avenue North on Sunday night.
If you recognize either of these men, call Crime Stoppers.
The Jefferson Street Sound Museum is a great little gem in North Nashville. The founder and curator turned his home into a museum to keep the legacy of historic Jefferson street alive. Now, it's been named a stop on the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. Aaron Cantrell takes us inside.
