46-year-old Hamilton Thomas tried to run his ex-wife and the mother of his child, Audra Clark, off the roadway near Ezell Road Park on May 16th. Clark alerted the authorities, advising them that Thomas drove from his home in Memphis to Nashville and argued with her while she attempted to pick up their daughter from band practice at Antioch High School. She said she got into her vehicle and left the school to avoid confrontation. Thomas followed behind her and tried to drive her off the road, causing her to pull over at Ezell Road Park. Thomas then exited his vehicle and started hitting her driver-side window, attempting to get her to talk with him. When officers spoke with Thomas, he told them a similar story, adding that he was wrong for handling things the way he did and “just wanted to talk.” Thomas was deemed the primary aggressor and was taken into custody for aggravated assault.
