Rutherford/La Vergne: Joint Operation Leads To Narcotics Bust


 Recently, a joint operation conducted by the La Vergne Police Department Narcotics Division and the Smyrna Police Department Crime Suppression Unit resulted in the seizure of illegal narcotics and the arrest of two individuals following a residential search warrant in Smyrna.

During the operation, investigators recovered approximately:
-2 ounces of crystal methamphetamine
-2 ounces of marijuana
-8 ounces of promethazine
One subject was charged with:
-Manufacture/Delivery/Sale of Methamphetamine
-Manufacture/Delivery/Sale of Schedule VI (Marijuana)
-Maintaining a Dwelling for Drug Use
-Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
-Felony Evading
A second individual was charged with Maintaining a Dwelling for Drug Use.
This investigation highlights the strong working relationship between the La Vergne Police Department and Smyrna Police Department. Criminal activity does not stop at city limits, and neither does our commitment to protecting our communities.
By working together and sharing resources, agencies across Rutherford County continue targeting the distribution of dangerous narcotics that negatively impact families, neighborhoods, and public safety.

Wilson/Lebanon: Multiple vehicles recovered in theft ring case


 The Lebanon Police Department continues a multi-agency investigation focused on dismantling a vehicle theft ring.

With support from the Tennessee Highway Patrol’s Criminal Investigations Division, the Wilson County Sheriff’s Office, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, our Special Operations Division executed search warrants at four residences in the Lebanon/Wilson County area, as well as a residence in the 9400 block of Clarksville Highway in the Whites Creek community of Davidson County.
During today’s operation, officers recovered multiple stolen vehicles, including two GMC Sierras reported stolen out of Texas and Ohio, along with a stolen Polaris Slingshot. Investigators also uncovered evidence related to the alteration and falsification of vehicle identification numbers (VINs).
Today’s operation stemmed directly from efforts during a previous multi-agency search warrant operation conducted on April 23, led by the Lebanon Police Department, as part of this ongoing vehicle theft investigation.
The investigation originally began on April 16 after officers located stolen vehicles with altered VINs while executing multiple search warrants related to the illegal sale and distribution of narcotics within the City of Lebanon.
This remains an active and complex investigation, with charges pending. Additional details cannot be released at this time.
