20-year-old Darrell Grayer was seen checking door handles on Sigler Street on August 24th. While officers were on their way to the scene, they noticed Grayer walking away from the area. When officers stopped him on 12th Avenue South, they had no victims, so they let him go. As officers were leaving, one of the officers was provided with Nest doorbell footage of the incident. The video displayed Grayer walking onto multiple properties and pulling on car door handles in an attempt to burglarize them.
Both victims wished to prosecute for the incident. Officers later made contact with Grayer again at 12th Avenue South and took him into custody. Officers found someone else’s driver’s license and debit card in Grayer’s left pocket and a handgun in his right pocket during a search of his person. Grayer was then transported to booking. While at booking, Grayer admitted that he was attempting to burglarize the vehicles for money.
Darrell Qurton Grayer was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 24th, charged with two counts of motor vehicle burglary. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $6,000.
