MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (WTVF) — Detectives are investigating a robbery Wednesday morning at Ascend Federal Credit Union on W. Clark Boulevard.
According to Murfreesboro Police, the robbery happened around 10:49 a.m. when two individuals arrived in a dark-colored Nissan Pathfinder armed with guns.
Police said the suspects approached an armored truck at the ATM, assaulted the armed guard and took an unknown amount of cash.
Officers later spotted the getaway vehicle on Old Fort Parkway, but the SUV sped away. The suspects then traveled onto Interstate 24 and exited onto Interstate 840 toward Smyrna, where officers lost sight of the vehicle.
The department’s Criminal Investigations Division is actively investigating the incident.
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.”
