Woman wanted for attempted murder, man wanted for sex crimes among ‘Most Wanted' fugitives in Nashville
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — Two people wanted for violent crimes are the latest additions to the Metro Nashville Police Department's (MNPD) list of 'Most Wanted' fugitives.
One woman added to the list is wanted on grand jury indictments for attempted first-degree murder, and one man is wanted for sex crimes against a minor.
Each week the MNPD Criminal Warrants Division posts the list of all the people they consider the top most wanted fugitives from justice. The list is updated each Wednesday on the department's Facebook page. According to Metro detectives, those featured on the list are often considered to be some of the 'most violent' offenders in the city.
Since the list was first launched in October 2022, 165 people featured on it have been apprehended or surrendered to law enforcement, including several apprehended out of county or even out of state. In 2025 alone, there have been 10 arrests of those featured on the 'Most Wanted' list, and 68 arrests took place in 2024.
Below is the list of suspects who made the 'Most Wanted' list for the week of April 23, 2025.
According to police, Muhina, 24, is wanted after being indicted by a federal grand jury on multiple felony counts. His charges include first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, solicitation to commit first-degree murder, attempted murder and tampering with evidence.

Court records show the charges stem from a September 2021 shooting that killed 16-year-old Ja'Niya Birdsong and injured another 17-year-old. Family members told News 2 multiple young men were involved in an argument with the two teens before shots rang out.
Birdsong died at the scene in her grandmother's Paragon Mills driveway. She was a junior at Hillsboro High School and hoped to become a hairstylist, according to family.
While initially the only link to a suspect was a light-colored sedan seen leaving, six people—including Muhina—have since been identified.
As their investigation progressed, detectives said they found text messages between the suspects regarding their plans to destroy the car used in the alleged homicide. Muhina and the other suspects are also accused of conspiring to hire someone to kill a witness.
At least one other suspect in the shooting was taken into custody. However, Muhina has remained at large. Anyone with information on Muhina's whereabouts is asked to contact the MNPD at 615-862-8600 or Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.
Raceme Crutcher, 22, has been on the run from police for more than a year, after he was named one of two suspects in a deadly Fourth of July shooting in 2023.
Officials said the shooting happened at the Fallbrook Apartments on Dellway Villa Road. Etabo Malanda, 16, was reportedly standing on the porch of an apartment when two armed individuals came from around the corner and confronted him.

Malanda allegedly tried to pull out a pistol that was inside his hoodie, but he was shot first. Police said he died shortly after he was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center.
According to investigators, four guns were recovered from the apartment, including one that was reported stolen. Crutcher and 17-year-old Jaylin Brown were reportedly connected to the crime through witness accounts.
Investigators also obtained surveillance footage and additional information from community members that they said pointed to Crutcher and Brown as suspects in the case. Officials believe the motive may have been an ongoing dispute between the suspects and Malanda.
Brown was taken into custody on Aug. 31, 2023, after police said they caught him driving a stolen car. Crutcher, however, is still on the run. He was added to the 'Most Wanted' list more than a year ago, on Nov. 15, 2023. His last location is unknown.

Locals react after 15-year-old girl is killed in Saline County dog attack
SALINE COUNTY, Ark. — A 15-year-old girl was attacked and killed by multiple dogs Wednesday morning while assisting with the care of animals at a property reportedly housing more than 30 dogs. The girl was killed at a residence near the intersection of Barth and White Oak Streets, a home neighbors say had long been the subject of complaints and concerns. Saline County authorities investigating after 15-year-old girl killed in dog attack According to the Saline County Sheriff's Office, which arrived on scene around 12:15 pm, the girl, whose name has not been released, was helping feed and care for the dogs, who were being housed at the location as part of a rescue.' Something she had reportedly done often, when she was attacked in the front yard. The Saline County Sheriff's Office confirmed the animals involved in the attack have been seized with the help of Benton Animal Control. The neighborhood, already wary of the dogs, is now mourning what many describe as a preventable death. Residents say complaints about the animals, which included numerous mixed-breed dogs, date back months, if not years. 'These dogs were very vicious at the fence to the point that people didn't want to let their children walk to and from the bus stop,' said neighbor Heidi Clay. 'They looked hungry, full of fleas, malnourished. This is by far not a dog rescue.' Mother of 6-month-old girl killed in dog attack calls it a horrible but avoidable accident Clay, whose father lives nearby, described the property as a dog-hoarding situation, not a legitimate rescue operation. She also stated that the girl and her mother had been given permission to help care for the animals. 'This beautiful young girl lost her life because these people do not properly take care of their dogs,' Clay said. 'She wasn't trespassing. She was trying to help.' Neighbor Ralph Murphy said he returned home to find deputies on scene and described a chilling scene as authorities worked to secure the property. 'The sheriff's deputy came up to the fence and a whole bunch of dogs ran up to him. He fired two warning shots into the ground,' Murphy said. 'Then he walked about ten feet onto the property, shook his head and walked back out. I looked and saw a body on the ground.' Murphy, like Clay, says the community had repeatedly raised concerns with law enforcement about the aggressiveness of what he called 'the unrestrained dogs.' 'Saline County said there was nothing they could do. But it's clear there was something they could do, they're doing it now,' Murphy said. 'It's a shame that some tragedy has to happen before our government responds.' Residents estimate the number of dogs on the property may have exceeded 40, including puppies. Some neighbors said law enforcement had previously told them to shoot the dogs if they came onto private property. Saline County does not have a countywide animal control department. Little Rock woman severely injured after Fourth of July dog attack At this time, there has been no confirmation on whether the owners of the dogs will face criminal charges. Neighbors say they've reported past incidents of the dogs attacking other pets and threatening people in the area. 'Too little, too late?' Clay asked. 'Yes. She's gone. Someone should have stepped up and done something. It's unacceptable how this little girl lost her life.' The Saline County Sheriff's Office has not released further details pending an ongoing investigation. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

[Attached video: Previous FOX 8 coverage] CLEVELAND (WJW) — It's been nearly one year since a 10-year-old girl was shot and killed while celebrating the Fourth of July holiday at a family gathering in Cleveland. Wednesday, two men charged in her death, Juwone Deaver and Jemerious Davis, were both found guilty of murder. Young mother killed in shooting at Cleveland Metroparks Mill Creek Falls On the evening of July 4, 2024, friends and family had gathered at a home at West 125th Street and Triskett Road. As FOX 8 News has previously reported, 10-year-old Gracie Griffin was standing outside the residence along with Deaver, Davis and Katie McKnight. According to Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael O'Malley, a vehicle with four people inside drove to the house for the party. The vehicle drove past the house, turned around and pulled in front of the home. 'Deaver and Davis then opened fire shooting multiple times with a .45 caliber firearm and an AK-style firearm at the vehicle,' a Wednesday news release from O'Malley's office stated. Gracie Griffin was struck in the head during the shooting and pronounced dead at the hospital. Investigators determined that no shots were fired from the vehicle. There was 'only evidence of outgoing fire from the residence.' Retired Cleveland police officer killed in fire 'An innocent 10-year-old girl lost her life because too many guns are finding their way into the hands of stupid people,' O'Malley was quoted in the news release. 'While this verdict does not bring back Gracie, it is a significant step in justice for her. My thoughts and prayers remain with her family.' Deaver and Davis will be sentenced at the Cuyahoga County Justice Center on July 8 at 8:30 a.m. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
