Wilson Said, “No $70,” Then Pulled The Strap!
Nate Baird, a self-employed HVAC and appliance technician, says he showed up at Reba Wilson’s east side home on Payton Avenue. According to reports, he arrived to fix a dryer that wasn’t heating properly. But after diagnosing the issue, things took a sharp left turn. Baird claims Wilson insisted the dryer was still under warranty and flat-out refused to pay for the visit. When he refused to work for free and started to leave, Wilson allegedly pointed a gun at him and demanded he fix it anyway.
He Ran For His Life—Then Heard A Shot!
Baird says he tried to stay calm, pretending to continue working before making a run for it out the back door. As he sprinted away, he claims he heard a gunshot and Wilson yelling, “I’ll pop a cap in your a**!” Additionally, Police later found a shell casing on top of the dryer and a gun hidden under a couch. Wilson was arrested and hit with several charges — including criminal confinement, intimidation, and being a serious violent felon with a firearm.
Baird says he’s still shaken and hopes Wilson finds support. “I just hope she gets some help,” he told reporters, admitting he’s now worried about his safety on future jobs. Social media users are already sounding off about the situation, with many saying, “All that over seventy dollars?!”
“I’m just worried for my safety if I go around to someone else’s house if something like that happens again,” Baird shared. “It’d be definitely scary.”
One Year Later, Wilson’s Back In Jail
Looks like things just got even more serious for Reba Wilson as she is back in jail, according to WTHR 13. Turns out, Wilson had been on the run for over a year after violating her pretrial release. Additionally, she was hit with an arrest warrant served on October 22. She returned to court this week to face that long-standing violation and is now scheduled for trial on December 2. Furthermore, Wilson faces five felony charges, including criminal confinement and unlawful possession of a gun by a serious violent felon.
