27-year-old Josue Fragoso Medina had a domestic incident with his girlfriend, Jannet Lopez, in the parking lot near Moxy Nashville Downtown in the early hours of April 27th. When officers arrived, they separated them and spoke with Lopez, who was still in emotional distress, as she told them that Medina became aggressive towards her during an argument. Lopez stated Medina smacked her in the face “a couple of times,” which left visible marks on her arms and a broken nail on her left thumb. The police then called the medics to aid her injuries.
Lopez stated that the witnesses, John McMahon and Mohib Muhammadi, intervened to help and stop Medina from attacking her, adding that Medina also tried to fight with them. Officers spoke with McMahon, who advised he was the first to observe Medina hitting Lopez, and he rushed over to help. Muhammadi said he saw Medina hit Lopez and then try fighting with McMahon, which was when he came to assist McMahon. Both told officers that they scuffled with Medina until their arrival. When officers tried to speak with Medina, he refused and told them, “It does not matter.” During their interaction, officers noticed Medina reeked of alcohol before deeming him the primary aggressor. Medina was then taken into custody for domestic assault and an order of protection violation.
Josue Frago-Medina of South Norton Avenue in West Los Angeles, CA, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on April 27th, charged with domestic assault and order of protection violation. He is free on a $7,000 bond.
