NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Looking to start your day catching up on the headlines? Here's a look at the top stories from overnight.
Mother shares difficulties of burying her son after random shooting
Senseless and uncalled for that's the response from Montie Smith dealing with the hard loss of her son.
"I don't hate you, God says not to hate anyone but I'll never forgive you," said Smith.
The man who killed him didn't know anything about his five children. Smith pulled what's left of her son, Chris Smith, off her walls to tell us.
Army soldier's husband, another woman charged in stabbing death of 23-year-old Ft. Campbell soldier
Two people have been arrested in the death of an army soldier who was found dead in her Clarksville apartment less than a year ago.
Clarksville police say the first person arrested in this case is a 35-year-old woman named Sofia Rodas. She's facing charges of first-degree murder and tampering with evidence.
Gov. Lee set to deliver 7th State of the State address on Monday
Governor Bill Lee is set to deliver his seventh State of the State address as part of a joint session in the House chambers.
In his preview of the address, the governor stated, "Tennesseans will hear how the state is innovating to ensure Tennessee remains a beacon of opportunity, security & freedom for all."
This is a story I immediately went home and showed my boys - young athletes with big dreams. The Vanderbilt football team's success has stolen the spotlight - what I love about Steve Layman's story is he reveals the individual hardships it took to get there. As Clark Lea says, "we all have scuff marks." This team proves perseverance pays off!
