Sara Evans Estranged Husband Arrested For Trying To Run Her Over

The estranged husband of singer Sara Evans has been arrested for allegedly trying to run her over.Harry “Jay” Barker has been charged with felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, following an incident in Nashville. Sara was leaving a neighbor’s party and was being driven by a friend when she passed her driveway and saw Barker parked there. According to WIAT, she then saw him “backing up his vehicle at a high rate of speed attempting to hit them but missed.” Evans and her witness told cops they believed Barker was intentionally trying to hit them. 

Barker left the scene before cops arrived, but eventually returned and was arrested. In addition to being charged, he was placed on a 12-hour domestic violence hold at Davidson County Jail in Tennessee. He was released Saturday on $10,000 bond.

Evans and Barker were married in 2008 with the arrest affidavit noting they are separated.

Jay took to Instagram to write a lengthy post.

In part he said, unfortunately headlines and quick-to-publish news stories do not adequately capture the full context and complex fabric of our lives. I love my family dearly, and at this difficult time, I respectfully ask for privacy for the sake of my family and especially for our kids.
