39-year-old Lamar Williams was the victim of a fight in downtown Nashville Sunday. Officers responded to find him extremely intoxicated and continuing to cause a scene after the fight was over. He was advised to walk away, which he eventually did. Moments later, and less than a block away, officers were flagged down as Williams was now causing a scene inside a bar. He was then taken into custody for public intoxication, but only after several officers had to take him to the ground due to his resistance. He had to be carried into the transported vehicle.
Lamar Williams of Union Street in Mobile, AL, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on March 6, charged with public intoxication and resisting arrest. A Judicial commissioner set his bond at $1,050, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave him pre-trial release from their facility.
