HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Hendersonville Police have arrested a 67-year-old man following an insurance fraud investigation.

Police said the investigation began November 18, 2024, after a business reported that Richard Wolfe was selling insurance policies without forwarding required premium payments, leading to policies being canceled without customers’ knowledge.
