MNPD

NASHVILLE – Steven Pointer, 19, has been arrested for attempted criminal homicide after Saturday night’s shooting toward an MNPD sergeant’s vehicle on Doverside Drive. Sgt. Brian Brown, working extra duty Violent Crimes Initiative, was enroute to a burglary call when a Toyota Camry traveling behind him fired several rounds at the unmarked patrol car.

Steven Pointer, 19

The 21-year-old driver said during an interview with detectives that Pointer, the passenger of the Camry, mistook Brown’s vehicle for someone else who burglarized his father’s business.

The driver said he drove away quickly because he did not know Pointer was going to fire gunshots.
