A case involving what was described as an attempted machete attack is now over for Murfreesboro Police. All that is left is a court date for the suspect.

The incident took place this past March in a Murfreesboro homeless camp, according to victim George Brewer.

The initial police report shows that 35-year Chad Jones, who is also homeless, allegedly went to the campsite of Brewer and began yelling at him. Evidently, Jones woke up Brewer who said he was scared for his safety when Jones was said to have tried attacking him.

Looking back to the March incident, the police report stated that 43 year old Brewer told Jones that he was calling the police, which is when Jones reportedly picked up a machete that was at the campsite. Brewer says that Jones started swinging the machete at him and he feared for his life.

On Monday (6/20/16) suspect Chad Jones was apprehended. Police received word that he was at a home on Pecan Court. Officers went to the home and arrested Jones on charges of Aggravated Assault and Vandalism. His court date will be set in the near future.

Jones remains behind bars at this time.
