There was an article yesterday, Sunday, August 9, 2009, in The [Maryville] Daily Times, on a "Road rage" incident. While driving down Alcoa Highway an individual alledgedly "waved the handgun" at another individual trying to travel the road. The individual with the reported handgun was arrested and charged with "aggravated assault".
An on-line version of the report is not yet available. The report is in section A, page 4 of the print edition.
The person alledgely "waving" the handgun appears to have a State of Tennessee handgun carry permit. The person's name, age, and city match a record in the handgun carry permit database. This information was not reported in the article.
How often does this happen? Is it tracked? Is it reported?

But I'm sure he'll plead it down to a misdemeanor and keep his 'extension'.
I think HCPs also get
I think HCPs also get suspended when someone's charged with a felony, and either restored or revoked depending on the outcome.
Yet another reason for HCPs

I wonder if the guy told the arresting officer "Hey, I have a permit!"
