  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Sunday, November 24, 2024.

    We're starting with some breaking news from the past few days. A 16-year-old died after being thrown from an SUV during a single-vehicle crash in Nashville's Priest Lake area on Thursday night. The incident occurred along Smith Springs Road, and our thoughts are with the family and friends of the victim[5].

    In another tragic incident, a man was critically injured after being involved in two crashes on Briley Parkway near the Opryland area on Friday night. According to Metro Police, the man fled the scene of the first crash before being involved in a second accident[4].

    Moving on to our job market snapshot, there haven't been any major hiring announcements or notable business expansions in the past few days. However, we do want to remind our listeners that more than 5,000 Tennesseans have registered to volunteer as tnAchieves mentors, which is a great way to give back to the community[1].

    In real estate news, we don't have any notable commercial or residential property sales to report. However, we do want to mention that the city is looking for a new operations partner for the Salvation Army after they parted ways with Metro[3].

    From city hall, we have an update on the Metro Water department, which mailed out 109,000 letters to Nashville residents earlier this week. The letters are part of an effort to inform residents about their water usage and provide tips on how to conserve water[1].

    The weather is expected to be mostly sunny today with a high of 71 degrees. However, we do want to remind our listeners to be cautious on the roads, especially after the recent crashes we mentioned earlier.

    In new business activity, we have some exciting news about a new nonstop route from Nashville to Orlando via Frontier Airlines. This is great news for travelers looking for more convenient options[1].

    Upcoming community events include the Nashville Safe Surrender event, which will be hosted by the MNPD in December. This event allows individuals with outstanding warrants to turn themselves in and receive help with finding resources and support[1].

    In local school achievements, we want to highlight a school in Nashville that focuses on dyslexic learners. This school is doing great work in providing specialized education and support to students with dyslexia[1].

    In sports news, the Tennessee QB Nico Iamaleava has been cleared to play against Georgia, which is exciting news for Vols fans[3].

    Finally, in our crime report, we have some updates on recent incidents. A suspect was shot in the leg and buttocks during a Metro officer-involved shooting, and a man was charged after a SWAT incident near the downtown Nashville jail[1]. We also want to remind our listeners to be aware of their surroundings, especially after a 17-year-old was shot in North Nashville and a suspect is still at large[3].

    On a more positive note, we want to share a feel-good community story about a Nashville chef who is giving back to the J.C. Napier community and calling for community support. This is a great example of how individuals can make a difference in their communities[1].

    This has been Nashville Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
