NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A man is dead after police say he was attacked in East Nashville, and possibly run over by a car. It happened on South 5th Street and Russell Street Monday night.
Police initially thought it was a hit-and-run after arriving to the scene, but a new update from detectives revealed nearby surveillance cameras showed 59-year-old James Sutton was attacked by another man before falling into traffic.
Police say it's still unclear if he was hit by a car, but he was taken to Vanderbilt with a severe head injury and multiple broken ribs. He later died at the hospital.
Police are asking anyone who lives in the area to review their cameras for anything that can help in the investigation.

I'm not sure there is a story that's brought a bigger smile to our faces than this one celebrating Ms. Marie. The story of her service during World War II is amazing in itself — she is a true Rosie the Riveter! What was also amazing was to see was how an entire community turned out to celebrate her. You've got to check this out!
