NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — An 'over-the-road' truck driver from North Carolina was found dead in his rig Monday with a gunshot wound.

According to Metro police, David White, 37, was found in the cab of a semi-truck parked on Lucas Lane next to Love's Travel Center in East Nashville.

A travel center employee reportedly found White unresponsive after members of his company asked for a welfare check when they could not reach White, who was last seen buying food from the travel center Sunday around 7:20 p.m.

Anyone with information about this investigation should call Nashville Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463. Callers can remain anonymous and qualify for a cash reward up to $5,000.

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.
