A woman on Crest Road received a text that said, "I'll be seeing you this weekend." The woman believed this to be a disturbing text. She responded, "Who is this?" There was no response. The woman’s dog was acting weird too. The dog was on the back porch looking down and would not come off the porch. The woman went outside and looked and couldn't see anything. The woman said she had a stalker 20 years ago but doesn’t believe it is related. She just wanted to make a report to be on the safe side. The woman’s husband is gone on business quite often and she is left alone with her kids so it scares her. The woman’s house was added to the watchlist to have extra patrol in the area.

Police responded to a disorder with weapons at 5013 Hixson. While en route, dispatch informed police the vehicles pulled over at the nearby gas station. Upon arrival, police spoke with a man who said he was in a road rage incident with another driver. The first man said the other driver followed behind for more than two miles, less than 10 feet away from his tailgate. He said he was getting off the ramp from Highway 153, getting onto Hixson Pike in the turning lane. While in the turning lane, the other driver drove by him on the left side of him, hitting his mirror. After hitting his mirror, the man said the other driver went by him, flipping him off and driving away. The man followed the other driver to get his tag, and the other driver pulled over at a nearby gas station. After pulling over at the gas station, the man got out of his vehicle to confront the other driver. The man noticed the other driver pulled a gun out. At this time, the man stopped and called police. Police then spoke with the other driver. He said he was getting off the exit of Highway 153 onto Hixson Pike. He said he attempted to drive around the other man, where he hit his mirror. The other driver said he had to pull over due to him driving a company vehicle, a white van. The other driver said he pulled over at a nearby gas station. After pulling over, he noticed the man pull in behind him at a fast rate of speed, get out of the vehicle and start cussing him. The other driver said he felt like his life was endangered and pulled his gun out in self-defense. After pulling his gun out, he told the man to back up, and he was calling the police. The man said he unloaded his gun and put it in the van before police arrived. Due to the difference in perspective of how the event occurred, and lack of witnesses or camera footage, it is believed that the incident did occur, but the other driver was within his legal right to display the pistol. No criminal charges were filed.
