Around 12:40pm, Clarksville Police were called to 119 Hickory Trace in reference to a Aggravated Robbery. A male, later identified as Horstead, entered an apartment uninvited, pointed a handgun at a 54 year old man’s head and demanded money. Once he received the money, he fled from the residence on foot.
