39-year-old Heidi Fontane Buffaloe had a domestic incident with her ex-boyfriend, Salvatore Cusumano, at his Old Hickory Boulevard apartment on May 25th. Cusumano told responding officers he had broken up with Buffaloe following a 4-year relationship. He asked her to vacate his unit around 11 a.m., and his brother came over to lock it after she left. Then, when Cusumano returned to his residence, he discovered she had damaged his $1,500 business phone. After the breakup, Buffaloe was asked to stop contacting him and his fraternity brother. However, Buffaloe disregarded this and continued texting Cusumano from multiple cell phone numbers, one of which stated, “That is why Q is going to get you. He is coming to pick up the $1,000 up to do the job.” The next text she sent said, “Whoop your ass,” placing him in fear for his safety. He added that in another message, she told him, “By the way, tell your ugly ass old friend to stop texting that because I am going to bother you guys for the rest of my life.” A warrant was issued for her arrest. Then, Buffaloe was taken into custody for harassment and vandalism on May 29th.
