DUI: Lucas Lee has multiple drinks before crashing into light pole

22-year-old Lucas Lee was involved in a single-car accident at the Murfreesboro Pike and Arlington Avenue intersection in the early hours of Christmas Eve. Officers arrived and observed Lee’s vehicle in the grass median and a destroyed light pole blocking a lane. Lee advised them that he was at a bar and had consumed alcohol before driving. They observed him to be visibly intoxicated as they located multiple bottle caps for alcoholic beverages and a shot glass in his car. He refused to take sobriety tests and was taken into custody for driving under the influence.

Dominick Hallums is fired in the AM; robs 7-Eleven of lottery scratch-offs in the PM

25-year-old Dominick Hallums was working at the 7-eleven on Smith Springs Road the morning of December 27th until he was fired. A few hours after his termination, he returned to the store at 5:45 p.m. without permission and walked behind the counter, and took $1,200 worth of Tennessee Lottery scratch-off ticket bundles. The manager was able to identify Hallums from a security video, and a felony burglary warrant was issued for his arrest. He was booked this week on that outstanding warrant.
