Hall Of Fame DJ Passes Away

MILTONMIKEHIGHT of FRANKLIN, TN, passed away on AUGUST 24th at the age of 82. Mr. HIGHT was once named "Mr. Deejay USA" with a permanent plaque placed in the Mr. DEEJAY USA HALL of FAME in NASHVILLE.

Revolving Door For Criminals In Nashville

Recent crime in East Nashville has nearly tripled. What's more frustrating for homeowners and police is that even when they catch the criminals, it's often just a matter of days before they're right back on the streets, making it hard to get a handle on the problem"We were out of town when this last one occurred across the street from us," said homeowner Jeremy Edwards of a recent burglary.Last week alone, police said, they've had more than 30 burglaries in East Nashville, and this week so far, more than 20."This is the first time we've been that high that I can remember in a long time," said Nashville police Cmdr. Robert Nash.Homeowners are on edge, and well as police -- so much so that Friday, they announced a new plan of attack."The past week, we have initiated kind of a task force," said Nash. "We've taken some people from some other shifts, put them together with detectives we meet daily."But will a task force do the trick? Many have their doubts."We will see if they can actually do something. "Task forces are, personally, a bunch of talk," Edwards said.Out of the last 38 burglars police have arrested, they said, 36 are already back out on the streets."With the criminals getting back out on the street as quickly as they do, there's something to be said about that," said Edwards. "If they come right back out, they'll just do the same things; it's not a deterrent."Police said people should keep track of the serial numbers on their property because they said in many cases, police are making arrests and recovering stolen goods but can't return anything without the serial numbers.

Chains Attacker Arrested

Kentucky State Police have arrested a man wanted in a chain saw attack on an East Tennessee man.




A news release from the agency said troopers arrested 27-year-old Brandon Petrey of Whitley County, Ky., shortly after 10 p.m. EDT Sunday.



Petrey is held on a charge of attempted second-degree murder and two local bench warrants from eastern Kentucky.



The Knoxville News Sentinel reported Petrey and another person were cutting tree branches and shrubs in a subdivision in Knox County, Tenn., and the victim went to stop them from cutting along his parents' property.



They got into an argument, and police said the victim was cut on a thumb.



It wasn't clear how serious the injury was, but Knox County Sheriff's spokeswoman Ashley Haynes said the man was taken to a hospital. His name wasn't released

Swimmer Missing One Week Later

For the seventh day, family and friends of Holly Nelson watched the rippling waters of Percy Priest Lake.


Last Sunday, the 25-year-old went on a boating excursion with a group of co-workers from Nashville Business Consulting. On the way back to Elm Hill Marina, they noticed she was missing. She has not been seen since.

"Basically, it's been a steady procedure of scanning the water, looking for objects of interest, things that indicate (it) may be Holly," said her father, Corliss Nelson.
Corliss has watched as rescue boats and divers have gone into the water and come back with no sign of his daughter.
Holly was a recent graduate of Middle Tennessee State University. She was devoted to her faith and engaged to be married in the spring, her family said.
Despite the days and hours that have passed since her disappearance, Holly's father is hopeful for happy news -- news he knows may never come.
"It's been a good thing that there's been several days that go by, because it kind of allows us for things to sink in gradually about the seriousness of it," he said.

In the last week, Holly's family has taken comfort in the welcoming arms and kind words of familiar faces and even strangers along the shoreline. They have also found peace in Holly's faith.
"We feel that she is with God," Corliss said. "If she's not with us, then she's with God. And we're thankful for that."
Anyone on the lake Sunday evening who may have seen Holly is urged to contact the Emergency Communications Center at 615-862-8600.

Teens Arrested for Beer Drinking

A large number of teenagers were caught drinking alcohol and arrested in Murfreesboro this past weekend.
