29-year-old Alvin ‘Bud’ Dupree has been formally booked on the criminal charge of assault. The citation was initially issued to him after a January incident at a North Nashville Walgreens store after a Sunday night game. He was given an extension on his original booking date earlier this month and has now been processed on the charge by the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office.
“A group of subjects entered the store to shop. Some of the subjects got into a verbal argument with the victim. The subjects left, then re-entered the store with the defendant. The defendant then grabbed the victim and his phone. They then got into a physical altercation before the defendant left the location. Due to the victim being assaulted, the defendant is being charged with assault-fear of bodily injury.”
