Metro Police and the FBI are turning up the heat on catching a bank robber. Pinnacle Bank is offering a $5,000 reward for the arrest and capture of the person who held-up the Hermitage bank this week. Police say the man entered the bank with make-up on to disguise himself as an African-American. He fired one shot during the robbery on Andrew Jackson Parkway before leaving the bank with some cash. One teller was slightly hurt while ducking for cover. Despite his make-up, police describe the suspect as a White man, between 5' 7" to 5' 10" tall, with a thin build. Authorities say he is armed and dangerous. If you have information, call Metro Police at 852-8600 or the FBI Violent Gang Task Force at 232-7500.

Photographer facing child pornography charges
May 22, 2013 22:37 GMT
JACKSON, Tenn. (AP) -- Federal prosecutors say a professional photographer from Perry County has been charged with possessing child pornography.
The U.S. attorney's office for West Tennessee said Wednesday that Robert Gregory Dempsey, also known as Jesse Rockwell, has been indicted by a federal grand jury in Jackson on charges of possession and interstate transportation of child pornography.
Prosecutors say Dempsey owned Rockwell Photography. Prosecutors say he used social media and the Internet to promote his business throughout western and central Tennessee, including Nashville and the Perry County area.
If convicted, Dempsey could face up to 20 years in federal prison. Online federal court records do not show when he has a court date or if he has a lawyer.
