A woman said she was waling at the park by the Tennessee Aquarium when she heard someone coming up behind her. She said she walked faster and got into her silver 1999 Mustang.
She said the man got into a dull red, full-size older pickup truck (possibly a Ford) and followed her from downtown to the Wal-Mart in Hixson, back to downtown, and back to the Wal-Mart before she lost him.
She said he bumped her car twice during the chase.
The only description of the man is a tall black male wearing a dark ball cap and blue jeans.
A man said while he was closing a restaurant at 507 Broad St. a black male attacked him with a plastic lawn chair. He said the man was standing just outside the rear door.

Brian Love said he was shot at while driving east on Walker Street.
He said the gunshot hit his car. He said he then drove to his business on Glass Street.
Loss prevention at Wal-Mart on Highway 153 said a man was seen removing a lamp from a box and placing a Sony Handycam worth $507 into the lamp box.
