In addition, 29-year-old Ryan Scott McCann of Ontario, Canada was also charged with disorderly conduct.

Buck was arrested on misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and resisting police.

That’s how one neighbor at Stones River Manor in Murfreesboro describes Tennie Fitzpatrick, who has mastered as many as seven different musical instruments.

It’s an ability Tennie herself believes is “a gift from God.” That’s because Tennie is blind, and overcame a difficult, abusive childhood.  Forrest Sanders shares this truly inspirational story.
