man arrested after stalking ex-girlfriend and ramming her car


Memphis police arrested a man Tuesday afternoon after seeing him approach his ex-girlfriend’s car on Elvis Presley Boulevard with a butcher knife in hand.

According to a police affidavit, Darnell Torry was following his former girlfriend, Kim Cobb, and her three child passengers southbound on Elvis Presley when he rammed his green Mercury Marquis into her silver Honda Civic. This caused Cobb to lose control of her car and hit a red F-150 pulling a trailer in the rear.

Police then witnessed Torry get out of his Mercury and approach Cobb’s Honda with a butcher knife. Police stopped Torry at gunpoint, confiscated the knife and arrested him on charges of aggravated assault, reckless endangerment, reckless driving and driving with a revoked or suspended license. more
