A La Vergne man claims he's being blackmailed by a woman. The 21-year old told Murfreesboro Police, who interviewed the man in the Old Fort Parkway Wal-Mart parking lot, he was in a relationship with a woman through a relationship website.

He stated the relationship progressed to the point of sharing nude photos of himself. Then, around 5:30 Saturday morning, the woman said she would share his photos on Facebook and YouTube unless he paid money for a particular paid adult website.

The woman, if caught, could face charges of blackmail and extortion.
