On route to the hospital, Cunningham allegedly threatened officers, even spitting in the face of one. He faces charges of assault, disorderly conduct, public intoxication, and terroristic threatening. Cunningham was lodged in the Hardin County Detention Center.

The streets of downtown Elizabethtown will look much different this weekend than in years past. With Cruisin the Heartland, events and tourism officials say the area looks to lose around $300,000 in economic impact for the surround area.

Elizabethtown events manager Sarah Vaughn says it’s unclear right now how much the area will lose out on collectively when considering all the events that have been canceled. But, she says, there’s no doubt that the impact will be felt.

Cruisin’ was one of the first major events canceled by the city back in May.
