Bright & Early: Limited Access Edition

Good morning, Nashville. The state held a series of town hall meetings yesterday for state employees to talk about the buyout offers they’ve been mailing out over the past week.

After a month of undercover work, they arrested 19 people in connection with a local drug ring and confiscated 46 ounces of heroin valued at around $180K. Police are saying it might be the biggest heroin [...]
