Police officers from a number of agencies make a major drug bust in Dickson County and capture a wanted murder suspect. The arrests happened on January15 on I-40 east. Officers stopped two men driving a truck hauling a car for a number of traffic violations. But they suspected more and brought in a police dog that indicated drugs were in the vehicles. Police found bundles of marijuana weighing 27 pounds, with a street value of $250,000. More checking revealed one of the two men is wanted on an Interpol warrant for murder in Mexico. At this time, both men are charged with possession with the intent to sell marijuana in Middle Tennessee.

Court rules against man who lost handgun permit
May 24, 2013 16:15 GMT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- The Tennessee Appeals Court has ruled against a man who claimed state law regulating the carrying of firearms was unconstitutional.
Leonard Embody filed suit in 2010 after state officials took away his carry permit, finding a "material likelihood of risk of harm to the public."
The revocation came after Embody was detained by Belle Meade police in 2010 while walking with a .44 caliber black powder revolver in his hand. He was detained in 2009 while walking in Radnor Lake State Park with an AK-47-style pistol. There have been at least three similar incidents, although Embody was never charged with a crime.
Embody claimed in court the Second Amendment gave him a right to carry firearms.
The Appeals Court disagreed, ruling that the right to bear arms is not unrestricted.
