The Rutherford Roundup

In Today’s Episode:

• Laverne drug arrest: A weekend traffic stop leads to the discovery of more than 100 grams of marijuana and multiple controlled substances, resulting in a long list of felony charges.

• Gas prices fall: Tennessee’s average price drops to $2.56 per gallon, offering drivers relief ahead of the holidays as lower demand and crude oil prices ease costs statewide.

• Whataburger closure: The Memorial Boulevard location will close December 15 as part of a regional scale-back, though other nearby stores will remain open.

• Holloway High School restoration: The school celebrates a historic project showcasing nearly 60 years of class photographs, with an open house supported by Rutherford County Archives and MTSU.

• Consumer confidence slump: New MTSU data reveals Tennesseans are reporting the lowest economic confidence levels in a decade, even as business optimism improves.
