November 20, 2006 Knox Sheriff Hutchison: Lumpy may have disarmed a murder suspect

News from Knoxville is that the individual that County Commissioner Lumpy Lambert disarmed last Saturday is a suspect in an earlier murder in Knox County.

A young man appeared at Lumpy's car lot on November 11th and drew a gun on the commissioner.

Lumpy then drew out his own gun and disarmed the suspect who fled the car lot and was apprehended some time later by Knox law enforcement.

Now Sheriff Tim Hutchison is saying that the individual that Lumpy disarmed is a suspect in an earlier Knox County murder.
