27-year-old Austin Hubbart and his wife, Megan, were visiting Nashville this weekend from Villa Grove, Illinois. The couple was drinking on Broadway Saturday night before returning to their AirBNB on Harmony Way. Both had been drinking in excess, and Austin threw up in the Uber on the way to the AirBNB. He became angry after that, and his rage continued once at their destination. She says he pushed her to the ground, where he repeatedly kicked her in the head and body multiple times, causing her to lose consciousness for an unknown amount of time. Once she awoke, she found him in the bed asleep and called police. Officers took Austin into custody and charged him with felony aggravated assault.
