Tennessee mom accused of multiple armed carjackings, using child as shield
CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (WZTV) — A Tennessee mother is accused of using her five-year-old child as a shield while she carjacked a man at gunpoint.
The Clarksville Police Department (CPD) reported officers responded Thursday afternoon to a Minit Mart where a 51-year-old woman said, while she was pumping gas, a white female approached her with a gun and stole the woman's Nissan Juke.
A short time later, officers responded to a shots fired call, in which a man told police a white female robbed him of his Mercedes Benz. The man said the woman fired a shot and used her child as a shield during the carjacking.
The Mercedes was later found by police in Cheatham County. The trail led to a Ford pickup truck which the woman also stole; then later crashed on an interstate. The woman, identified as 24-year-old Bethany Wilson of Goodlettsville, was later found at a Days Inn on Thursday night and was arrested.
Police say the child was with her at the time and was found safe. Wilson is facing charges of aggravated robbery as a result of the alleged crimes.
