NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Metro police Organized Retail Crime detectives arrested 61-year-old Gregory Nabors on 15 outstanding felony warrants tied to a series of thefts from the Lowe’s on Old Hickory Boulevard.

Investigators say Nabors began targeting the store in March, where he allegedly placed merchandise in his cart and swapped the barcodes with those from less expensive items to pay a lower price.

Police say Nabors, of Mt. Juliet, admitted to the activity during questioning. He faces 14 felony counts of criminal simulation and one felony count of theft of merchandise.

Nabors is being held on a $75,000 bond as the investigation continues.

Archived Sky 5 video shows Nashville's skyline transformation

Nashville's skyline looks drastically different than when I came to NewsChannel 5 in 1993. A lot of those changes have happened in just the last several years, and the skyline continues to grow. Sky 5 and several viewers have been able to visually document it. I love Austin's look back!
