Good morning, Nashville. After a few weeks of uncertainty, Sheriff Daron Hall has decided that Nashville’s 287(g) immigration enforcement (ICE) program is probably here to stay. A new federal revision would’ve required that detainee records remain inaccessible to the public, which would be a violation of Tennessee state law. Nashville’s Sheriff’s Office has submitted that they hope will make the program feasible in Tennessee.
- School’s in. Rutherford County schools are back open after some pretty bad flooding yesterday. Several roads in the area, however, have been closed down due to high water. Wilson, Maury, and Lawrence counties have had to make similar road closures.
- Strangers with candy. Some shady strangers have been driving around Brentwood and talking to kids at bus stops or trying to lure them into cars with candy and money. Police are concerned but haven’t identified any suspects yet.
- Bits & pieces. Close to 36,000 Tennesseans have filed for the first-time home buyers tax credit … Montgomery Bell Academy rescheduled a big football game to honor the Jewish holiday Rosh Hashanah, which starts this evening at sundown … Congrats to the Preds for winning their first preseason game against Atlanta 5-0 … I-440 eastbound westbound will be closed this weekend. You know the drill.
