The Tennessee Sheriff’s Office Fees announced that the driver of a truck that caused panic outside a convenience store Sunday after hearing that a recreational vehicle that exploded in downtown Nashville was facing serious offenses, the Tennessee Sheriff’s Office Fees announced.
The Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office said late Sunday night that church members and customers in a nearby market where a White Bucks X truck was spotted Sunday morning heard the driver say the same thing he had heard before it exploded in downtown Nashville on Christmas Day.
Sergeant. Steve Craig said deputies were called in to investigate reports that the truck driver was driving “loud” audio dios outside the market and later learned that a man had been charged with similar acts outside a church during the service.

The sheriff’s office said in a statement that 33-year-old driver James Turjian had been detained and charged with two counts of trespassing and tampering with evidence. Officials say Tarzion was accused of tampering with evidence because he “intentionally damaged the speaker system wiring.”
Tennessee Highway Patrol said a robot was sent to investigate the truck and no device was found.
Authorities said Turzian is being held on 500,000 bonds.

Early Sunday morning, police received reports that a “suspicious” boxbox truck had been parked at the county’s Crossroads Market in Walter Hill at about 10:30 p.m.
Officials say the driver left the parking lot and was pulled over and detained by officers. Law enforcement agents closed a section of highway in neighboring Wilson County after officers sent a robot to investigate.
No explosives were found, Tennessee Highway Patrol Lt. Bill Miller said.

Also on Sunday, authorities identified the 63-year-old Anthony Quinn Warner as the suspect in the Christmas Day bombing. Police have identified Warner as a person interested in the bombing, at least since Saturday, after federal and local investigators gathered at his home.
Downtown streets were buzzing with activity before the bombing took place well on Christmas Day and someone nearby was warned that the bomb would explode soon. Shortly before the blast, the audio was turned into a recording of Petula Clark’s 1964 hit “Downtown”.
