A 68-year-old man has been arrested after allegedly setting a dumpster on fire in downtown Nashville as a protest against the city’s homeless policies. He is being held on a $20,000 bond.
Authorities say he admitted to setting the blaze intentionally in Arcade Alley, a popular pedestrian corridor in the city’s downtown area.
He claimed it was an act of protest directed at Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell over the city’s approach to homelessness.
No injuries were reported, but the fire prompted a swift response from fire crews and police due to its location in a high-traffic area near businesses and residential buildings.
