NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Metro Nashville Police are investigating what the department is calling credible threats against NES and its employees following January's ice storm.
There have been at least 11 instances of threatening, harassing, or doxing behaviors that police are aware of.
NES reported a spree of car break-ins at an employee parking lot during the height of the storm response. On Wednesday, during an NES board meeting, CEO Teresa Broyles-Aplin said there were "credible death threats" against management.
This comes as the board is working to make sure widespread outages like we saw a few weeks ago, never happen again. The board hired seven new tree-trimming companies for $21 million.
The security threat team in Metro Nashville Police’s Specialized Investigations Division is investigating the threats.

September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
