Agents with the TBI arrested Fentress County Road Supt. Fred R. “Butch” Blevins yesterday, according to a news release.

Blevins, 56, was indicted by a Fentress County grand jury on several charges, including theft over $1,000 and official misconduct. An investigation by the TBI alleges that Blevins pocketed funds from the sale of scrap metal that belonged to Fentress County, between the months of December 2007 and February 2008.

Blevins was booked at the Fentress County Jail on a $10,000 bond.
