NARRATIVE
On 06/24/16 at 0845 hours, Officer D. Skinner, UM116, was posted inside the Hamilton
Performing Arts center located on the U of M Lambuth campus for the Tennessee
Commission board meeting. A verbal altercation broke out between Linda Higgins and
several other board members. Officer was called to the stage and advised by the County
Mayor and several other board members that Ms. Higgins needed to be escorted off the
property due to her behavior. Ms. Higgins was observed causing a disruptive scene,
arguing and waving her hands in Ms. Harris' face. Officer Skinner stepped between Ms.
Higgins and Ms. Harris to separate them and was struck by Ms. Higgins as she waved her
hands. Officer Skinner felt the strike was unintentional and ordered Ms. Higgins to cease
her actions. She refused to acknowledge Officer Skinner, stating he was not a real police
officer and that he needed to "shut up and get out of the way". Officer Skinner took
control of Ms. Higgins by her right arm and escorted her from the building using minimalforce. Ms. Higgins continued to cause a scene outside the building, throwing trash on the
lawn before eventually leaving the area.
