NOLENSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — A youth softball league in Nolensville is still looking for answers after a shed fire destroyed all of their equipment.

Fire destroys Nolensville Youth Softball team's gear in overnight fire

It happened just after midnight back on July 4th. Now there's a reward to catch the person who may have set the fire.

A GoFundMe, which was made to help the team, has reached just over half of its $15,000 goal so far.

They are raising this money to cover the costs of replacing essential equipment such as balls, catchers' gear, bases and more.

The shed was a total loss in the fire so there's so much they're trying to recover.

Nolensville city leaders are chipping in by unanimously signing a resolution allocating $1,000 from the city's general fund and $1,000 from Crime Stoppers as a reward for information that leads to an arrest.

The fire department says they're looking to identify anyone who was in the area between the hours of midnight and 2 a.m. on July 4th.

Hermitage clinic for disabled patients set to close, cites loss of funding

I'm so thankful Robb Coles highlighted the Kamer Davis clinic in Hermitage and the hardship that may force its closure. The clinic provides care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities and there is no other place like it nearby. You can tell the staff is so passionate about the care they provide. I hope by shining the light on this, the right person can step in and make a difference.
