All four suspects wanted for shoplifting and assaulting an employee at the Murfreesboro Pike Marathon gas station last Thursday have been identified, and two have been arrested. Leslie Myhand, 32, of Nashville, and Sasha Arrington, 33, of Sumner County, have been charged by Violent Crimes detectives for their involvement in the incident.
Detectives located the white Honda Pilot in which the suspects fled at a hotel on Spence Lane. Myhand, Arrington and the man seen in surveillance photos from the gas station were observed getting into the vehicle. All three were taken into custody. The man was questioned and released.
The victim stated Myhand’s credit card was denied multiple times before she ultimately left with the items she attempted to purchase from the gas station. Myhand was charged with theft of merchandise.
Arrington was charged with theft of a firearm after she came up behind the victim and took her weapon during the assault.
Tiffany Dryden, 35, of Hermitage, has been identified as the suspect that pushed the employee to the ground and began smacking her head to the floor. She now has active warrants for assault and theft of merchandise.
Anyone with information on Dryden’s whereabouts are being asked to call Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.
