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.

November 16, 2006 State Sen. Tim Burchett Nabs Suspects
It looks like Knox County Commissioner Greg "Lumpy" Lambert is not the only elected official who has decided that "enough's enough" in the crime arena. Click here for the story on Lumpy.
Yesterday, State Senator Tim Burchett nabbed four youths in connection with a break-in at a warehouse where Burchett keeps old motorcycles and parts.
Three motorcycles and a camera had been stolen previously, so Burchett had been staking out the warehouse on his own.
Saying he is sick and tired of crime and of being a victim of crime, Burchett was armed yesterday and nabbed four young people at his warehouse on Amherst after they had allegedly broken into his warehouse.
Burchett held the four at bay---and fed them chocolate chip cookies---until officers arrived. Burchett said he would press charges because he figures the parents only punishment might be to take away the kids' "Gameboy" for an afternoon.
