A Nashville man, 41-year-old Jericco McFarland, is facing charges including aggravated kidnapping, aggravated robbery, and felon in possession of a firearm. The Metropolitan Nashville Police Department reported that the incident occurred on November 16 behind a Citgo gas station on Dickerson Pike, according to the Metro Nashville.
