VINA – A Franklin County man was arrested on domestic violence charges on Wednesday night after he threatened to harm himself and his family members.

Bradley Lawrence Tucker, 26, 1276 Highway 247, Vina, was arrested on three counts of third-degree domestic violence, Franklin County Sheriff Shannon Oliver said.

According to Oliver, the sheriff’s office received a call about 9 p.m. Wednesday that Tucker was threatening to shoot himself and his family members.
