NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Metro Police are looking into an email threat sent to several local Jewish organizations.
They say they cleared the building of a synagogue that received the bomb threat. There were no services going on at the time.
"The Jewish Federation of Greater Nashville" says it also received a threat this morning and immediately notified police and local and statewide Jewish organizational leadership.
Officials said they are grateful for the support and professionalism of law enforcement partners.
I LOVE Forrest's stories on the history of NewsChannel 5 as we celebrate our 70th anniversary. Here's a story I wasn't familiar with until recently. Eudora Boxley had a live cooking show in the early days of the station. She may have been the first black on air at NewsChannel 5 and perhaps, one of the first African Americans to have a TV cooking show anywhere in the country. It wasn't until her grandson reached out to me that I even heard of Ms. Boxley. Thankfully, I was able to connect him with Forest to learn more about this great nugget in NewsChannel 5 history.
