A fast acting Clarksville Police officer saved the life of a woman. Officer Seth Paugh was called to a house fire at 300 Blaine Court Tuesday morning. When he saw smoke blackening all the windows, he broke down the door and went inside. Officer Paugh got on his hands and knees to get below the smoke. It's then he spotted a woman lying on the living room floor with her legs moving slightly. Officer Paugh crawled to her and brought her out of the burning home. She was taken to the hospital where she is listed in critical but stable condition.

Pharmacist admits misbranding dialysis drugs
May 21, 2013 21:08 GMT
WICHITA, Kan. (AP) -- A Tennessee pharmacist has admitted distributing a misbranded Chinese-made drug that was given to kidney dialysis patients in Kansas.
The U.S. Attorney's office says 53-year-old Robert Harshbarger Jr., of Kingsport, Tenn., pleaded guilty Tuesday in Topeka to one count each of distributing a misbranded drug and health care fraud.
Harshbarger admitted that from 2004 to 2009, he substituted a cheaper Chinese import for an iron sucrose drug approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The drugs were given to patients of Kansas Dialysis Services. Prosecutors say there were no reports of harm, but patients were put at risk because the FDA could not assure the drugs' effectiveness and safety.
Harshbarger's plea deal calls for four years in prison, restitution of nearly $849,000 and a forfeiture of $425,000.
