Suspicious man flees into stranger’s home after being questioned by police

20-year-old Darrius Heard was charged with vandalism, criminal trespassing, and resisting arrest after he was questioned because he matched the description of a suspicious person in the area and fled into a stranger’s apartment when police attempted to detain him.

On September 14th, Clarksville Police Officer Hampton responded to vandalism at 2655 Union Hall Road. Upon arrival, Hampton observed a black male with black shorts and a white shirt matching the description on the suspicious person from the dispatch call. As Hampton exited his patrol car, the complainant stated she called and pointed out the suspect in front of his vehicle.

Hampton approached the male, who was later identified as Darrius Heard. He asked for Heard’s identification and he stated he did not have his ID, although it was found on his person later. Heard asked why the officer was speaking with him and he advised him he matched the description of a suspicious person in the area. Heard became upset but gave the officer his date of birth.

When asked for his social security number, Heard walked away. Hampton told him to stop and grabbed his arm. Heard proceeded to pull away and run into a nearby apartment. While Hampton was attempting to detain Heard, he resisted and they collided into the hallway of the apartment breaking the wall. Heard continued to resist even after officers managed to detain him.

Darrius Heard was arrested and charged with vandalism, criminal trespassing, and resisting arrest. His bond was set at $7,000 and he is no longer in custody.
