A 30-year old man pushing a shopping cart down the road loaded with three saws was questioned by police. Evidently, the situation just didn't look on the up and up.

When police pulled over to speak with Antonio Nelson of the Shelbyville Highway, he reportedly took off running leaving the shopping cart and saws behind. Officers chased the man down and caught him, but at the time could not locate the owner of the saws. A day later, the owner was located. The saws were traced back to Home Building Products, a locally owned business.
