On the night of October 25, 2015, Olympia Hobbs, 33, was fatally shot after answering a knock at the door of her South Nashville home on Hopewood Court at about 2 a.m. Her two children, ages 13 and 5, were inside the house and were not physically harmed. Hobbs was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where she died of her injuries.

Metro Nashville police linked the killing to an earlier shooting that same night about two hours before and roughly four miles away on Lutie Street, using surveillance video. Detectives identified Javier Alexander Rivas and Hayden S. Fryer as suspects in both shootings. A Davidson County Grand Jury indicted both men in May 2016 on multiple charges, including first-degree felony murder and first-degree premeditated murder in Hobbs’s death. A jury later convicted both defendants and imposed an effective sentence of life in prison plus fifty-two years.

Anyone who knew Olympia Hobbs or has information about the events that night is asked to come forward.
