Police say 19-year-old Ahmed Bader was involved in an automobile crash in Antioch, and instead of stopping to exchange information, he drove his black Infiniti into the parking lot of the Knights Inn and hid two pounds of marijuana and a pistol behind a conex box. He then drove to the Target parking lot and got into the passenger side of another vehicle, which drove away. Unmarked cars were able to follow the silver Chrysler to Craftwood Drive, where he was taken into custody. $500 in cash was recovered from his wallet in small bill denominations.

Purported Bail Bondsman posing as police officer makes traffic stop in Nashville
22-year-old Angel Carrera was driving a black Crown Vitoria and wearing black BDU-style pants with a black polo shirt, and a handgun on his hip, when he activated the light bar on top of his vehicle and conducted a traffic stop near 100 Oaks Mall on March 1. He approached the vehicle, which was driven by a Metro Nashville government employee. He then explained the driver pulled out too far into the intersection and stated, “there are lines for a reason, and they needed to be abided by!” He then chastised them for not following the law and to not repeat their mistake. As he turned to walk away, the driver inquired if he was a Metro Nashville Police Officer, and he stated, “no,” he was a bail bondsman. He was identified by a photo taken of his license plate, and a warrant was issued for his arrest. He was booked on that warrant this week.
