Country singer Alan Jackson became the victim of a crime in Gainesville
last week even though he was not in town (at least not that we know of).
Sometime between 8 p.m. on Jan. 7 and 8 a.m. on Jan. 8, someone removed the
Tennessee license plate from a 2010 Dodge pickup registered to Jackson.
The man who drove the truck to Florida, William Jones, told Alachua County
deputies that he is the primary driver of Jackson’s truck. Jones said he parked
the truck outside the Country Inn and Suites at 4015 SW 43rd St., where he s
tayed overnight while he was in the Gainesville area.
