A former Smithville man is among three people arrested in a Nashville convenience store burglary this morning (Friday) on McGavock Pike across from Opryland in which $240 was stolen.
35 year old Jason Donnie Pack has been charged with burglary, theft of property, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. The other two persons were reportedly employees of the store.
WJLE contacted Metro Nashville Police for a statement and mug shot of Pack.
In the affidavit sent to WJLE, police report that “On Friday, September 18 just after 12:30 a.m., police received a call at 2471 McGavock Pike, Nashville (BP Station) stating that there was a cart pushed through the front door. Upon arrival, officers observed the front door had been shattered and money was laying at the entrance. The business owner, Joe Hobbs, responded to the scene and accessed surveillance video footage. Blood evidence was located behind the counter of the business, during the on scene investigation.”
“Surveillance video showed a bald male white subject wearing a long sleeve dark colored shirt, Khaki pants, and dark shoes with light colored laces, bust the front door window and enter the business. Upon entering the store, the subject fell into a short wall, on the glass. The subject ran directly to where the money drawers were stored, grabbed cash from the drawers and then fled the store. A large white colored four-door sedan could be seen leaving the business moments later, from the direction the subject was seen running.”
“At 2:39 a.m., Hermitage Flex officers conducted a traffic stop on a light colored Lincoln sedan for having a tag light out. The defendant (Pack) was in the passenger seat of the vehicle. During the stop, the defendant (Pack) had claimed ownership of the vehicle. A search of the vehicle produced a plastic bag containing 2 hypodermic needles and 1 dilaudid pill from the pocket of the front passenger door where the defendant was seated. The defendant was wearing a short sleeve black shirt, and khaki pants. The defendant had a large amount of cash, in $1 and $5 denominations, in his pocket. One of the $5 bills had a paperclip on it, which is how the store had the money separated. The defendant also had a recent, still blood smeared cut on his lower left leg. Located in the rear floorboard of the vehicle was a long sleeve black t-shirt, that appeared to have blood on it. The defendant was taken into custody. He was determined to be too intoxicated to be interviewed”.
According to the report, “the estimated amount of money stolen from the business is about $240, at this time”.
