Chris Cagle and Girlfriend Jennifer Tant Arrested in Nashville (Mugshots)
Country music star Chris Cagle and his girlfriend Jennifer Tant are being held in jail in Nashville on domestic assault charges following a drunken fight at the couple’s home.
Cagle and his girlfriend got into an argument after leaving a bar in the Bellevue community, west of Nashville. The argument escalated to physical violence once they arrived home.
After arriving at Cagle’s house, officers determined that Cagle and Taut appeared to be intoxicated and that both showed signs of physical abuse. According to a police affidavit, Cagle had a bump on his head caused by Taut hitting him with an umbrella, and Taut had a scrape on her lip and a sore arm from Cagle hitting her with her purse. According to the television station, the couple refused to leave the house, and Taut told police she would rather go to jail than leave Cagle’s home.
Cagle and Taut were arrested and taken into custody under Tennessee state domestic violence laws that considered both of them to be a primary aggressor. The law also mandates that both of them remain in jail until 4:40 p.m. Wednesday. Bond has been set at $1,500 each.
Cagle is also facing trial stemming from a misdemeanor assault charge involving an altercation outside a Tuscon, AZ nightclub on December 13.
