LA VERGNE, Tenn. (WTVF) — La Vergne city offices are closed to the public until further notice, a spokesperson for the city said.
In a statement, a spokesperson said "unusual activity" was detected on its local network on Friday and, in response, staff proceeded to take the network offline.
With systems offline, the spokesperson said the city will rely on "old-school processes" until everything is back up and running.
“We are checking all computers on our network,” said city administrator Bruce Richardson. “It’s going to be a long process but we are here to continue supporting our community. We ask for patience and understanding as we go through this situation.”
La Vergne officials are working with a third party cybersecurity team, the FBI, and TBI to investigate the issue.
Here’s a beautiful story of how one mother turned her grief journey into a gathering of gratitude… and organ donation awareness.
Robb Coles highlights a special event organized by Cari Hollis – whose 26-year old son Austin died two years ago. Austin agreed to be an organ donor – and that single gesture saved multiple lives.
Cari reached out to as many recipients she could find – several of whom traveled to Nashville for an emotional celebration in Austin’s honor. One woman – whose life was saved by receiving Austin’s lungs – put it simply: “He’s my angel”.
