Officers then made contact with Kibukila’s stepson, a witness to the incident, who reported that he had to step in front of Joseph to get Kibukila to stop hitting her. Joseph added that Kibukila hit the witness, and she had to swing a lanyard at Kibukila to defend him. Joseph stated that this led to them swinging items at each other. Officers were later provided with a video of both parties. The video showed Kibukila swiping at Joseph and swinging his bag at her as she swung her lanyard. Once the altercation stopped, another argument was observed in which Kibukila slapped Joseph unprovoked. Officers determined that Kibukila was the primary aggressor, so he was taken into custody for domestic assault.

Freddy Kibukila of Scruggs Lane in Nashville, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 28th, charged with two counts of domestic assault. He is free on a $2,500 bond.
