Firefighters are on the scene of a house fire in the 5900 block of Deal in West Nashville, where we're told an elderly woman is believed to have set her house on fire. Officials tell us they were called out to the home last night on a disturbance call, and the woman calmed down. Just a few moments ago, however, on this Christmas morning, firefighters arrived to a blaze at the home. We're told when firefighters got there, the woman was waving a cane at them, and police were then called to the residence. The woman was taken away on a gurney. It is unknown at this time whether she will be charged.

Pipeline work can continue at state natural area
May 24, 2013 11:16 GMT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee environmental officials have given Piedmont Natural Gas permission to resume drilling on a Nashville pipeline project.
Work was halted on May 11 when a mixture of bentonite clay and water spilled from a drill into Otter Creek at the Radnor Lake State Natural Area.
The mud was later scraped out of the creek using buckets and hand tools.
Meredith Benton, a spokeswoman for the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation, told The Tennessean (http://tnne.ws/199LA54 ) that Piedmont agreed to 11 new terms and conditions to prevent a recurrence of the spill.
Those include creating a pit to capture any spilled slurry and daily water quality monitoring.
Benton said the department has not decided whether to issue fines or citations.
