68-year-old Jackie Cook was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on two outstanding warrants for events that occurred in March. Cook was in a dispute with his neighbor, William “Bill” Crump. Their properties share rear alley access between the two. Crump was reportedly upset that Cook was shoveling dirt onto the alleyway, which Crump alleges is part of his property, and property maps appear to confirm. Cook realized their interaction was being recorded and became upset, using his shovel to knock a cell phone out of Crump’s hand. Cook then drew his shovel back as if he were about to strike Crump, and advanced toward him. Video shows this and an additional attempt to strike Crump with the shovel.
Two weeks later, Cook was again shoveling dirt onto the alleyway, and as Crump attempted to remove the dirt, Cook shoveled two scoops of dirt onto Crump, which was also captured on video. Cook is charged with felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for the first incident, and simple assault for the second. He is free on a $6,000 bond.

| ARREST WARRANT / AFFIDAVIT: |
| On 03/02/2021, William Crump III reported that the defendant, Jackie Cook, was shoveling dirt onto the alleyway that Crump states is part of his property. As Crump attempted to discuss the matter with Cook, Cook became angry when he noticed he was being video recorded by Crump. Cook then took his shovel and knocked Crump’s cell phone out of his hand. Cook then drew the shovel back and advanced toward Crump as if he were going to strike him with the shovel. A few minutes later Crump attempted to reason with Cook again. Cook then jabbed at Crump with the shovel handle and drew it back as if he were going to strike him. Crump possessed video footage of this incident that corroborated his statements. On 03/14/2021, William Crump III reported that the defendant, Jackie Cook, was shoveling dirt onto the alleyway that Crump states is part of his property. As Crump attempted to clean the area where Cook had dumped the dirt, Cook tossed a shovel scoop of dirt on him, twice. Video footage of the incident clearly shows that Cook did intentionally dump the dirt on Crump twice. Both incidents occurred in Nashville, TN / Davidson County at the address of 2007 Eastside Ave. |
