West Precinct detectives will be swearing out an arrest warrant charging Horace Palmer Williamson III, 27, with aggravated robbery for the August 12th robbery/carjacking of a man in Bellevue.
Williamson is presently jailed on aggravated kidnapping, aggravated assault, unlawful gun possession and evading arrest charges as the result of his arrest late Friday.
In the carjacking case, a 26-year-old Nashville man reported that he was traveling outbound on Highway 70 South in his 2017 Dodge Journey when a dog ran out in front of him. He turned around to see if he had hit the dog. When he did, he saw another unknown vehicle traveling in the opposite direction swerve toward the animal. The victim said he stopped to check on the dog, and that when he did, there were two black men, at least one of them armed with a gun, standing over him. The two men robbed the victim and told him to run away. As he ran, he looked back and saw the robbers drive away in his Dodge Journey.
The Dodge Journey was recovered by Juvenile Crime Task Force officers late Friday in an alley near 24th Avenue North & Meharry Boulevard. The continuing investigation led to this afternoon’s identification of Williamson as a gunman in this case.
In last Friday’s kidnapping case, Williamson is accused of forcing his girlfriend to go with him at gunpoint after she had asked a couple to give her a ride to get away from Williamson.
Williamson was convicted of especially aggravated robbery in 2010 and received a 10-year sentence. He was arrested on charges of felony aggravated assault and unlawful gun possession in March 2016 and released on $50,000 bond. That case is pending in Criminal Court. Williamson was arrested on charges of aggravated burglary, assault and vandalism in July 2017 and released on $35,000 bond. That case is pending in Criminal Court. He was arrested on June 21, 2018 on charges of gun possession by a convicted felon, marijuana possession and driving on a revoked license. He was released on an $11,000 bond. Those charges are also pending.
Seems fairly clear that this scumbag is going to have to kill someone before he gets put away for more than just a few months.
