"Suspicious Event At Gun Manufacturer Prompts Investigation"

A suspicious event at a Middle Tennessee gun manufacturer has investigators across the state searching for men and a white truck.

A statewide be on lookout has been issued Thursday for subjects described as being of Middle Eastern descent who asked questions of Barrett Firearms Manufacturing, Inc. employees and tried to enter the secure facility.

Deputies were called to the plant Thursday morning to gather information about the Wednesday afternoon incident. A plant employee was leaving the building at about 4 p.m. when he encountered a man who appeared to be Middle Eastern who'd arrived in a white pickup truck towing a white utility trailer.

The man asked questions about what was manufactured there, and when refused information by the employee, began demanding entry to the building.

When the employee began studying the man's truck, the subject became upset and was told to leave the area.

In all, there were three men in the truck.

Anyone who may have information about these men should call 898-7770 .
