35-year-old Jacob Williams had an altercation with Ashley Gail Meeks on Dickerson Pike in the late hours of August 30th. Meeks spoke with the officers and advised that she took an Uber to meet with Williams to sell her coin collection and hang out. She stated they went to the back bedroom to chill, and a few hours later, they walked out towards the front area of the trailer park to the community trailer. She said that Williams got into an unknown silver four-doored sedan, which drove him back to his trailer, so she messaged him regarding his whereabouts because they were supposed to meet at the community trailer. Meeks waited on the front steps, and another individual came out and told her that she could not hang out if she did not have a space in the community trailer, so she began to walk to William’s trailer to retrieve her belongings. When she got to his trailer, a female named Ashley answered. She said she had never seen Meeks and needed to leave. Meeks advised her that she would not leave until she got her coins back or the $200 for them. Then, Williams reportedly came out and grabbed her hair, stating, “I owe you no money! you are a whore!” Meeks said that Williams pulled her down the steps, dragged her across the ground, grabbed her phone from her, hit her in the face, and threw the phone, causing it to break. Meeks tried calling the police during this incident but could not until she ran away to the front of the trailer park, contacting them via Siri. Williams was taken into custody for vandalism, theft, and domestic assault on December 9th.
