A La Vergne man suspected of dealing cocaine and fentanyl in the South Nashville area over the past several months is now jailed on seven counts of selling drugs and is now being looked at in connection with a fatal overdose in Coffee County. The Coffee County Sheriff’s Department says 30 year old Joshua Hardaway was caught in a fentanyl distribution investigation involving Tullahoma Police, Coffee County Sheriff’s Office, the MNPD, the La Vergne Police Department, and the TBI. A search of Hardaway’s home Tuesday yielded three guns and approximately five ounces of fentanyl.  Charges in relation to the search will be in Rutherford County. Hardaway is being held in lieu of $192,000 bond.
