Police in the city of Jackson, Tennessee released video showing quadruple murder suspect Austin Drummond — openly carrying a black rifle — as he tries doors and wanders a resident’s yard in the Pipkin Road area on Sunday night.
Drummond, 28, is suspected of killing four people in Lake County, about an hour from Jackson, a week ago. The bodies of Adrianna Williams, 20; James Matthew Wilson, 21; Braydon Williams, 15; and Cortney Rose, 38; were found in Tiptonville just hours after a 7-month-old girl — the daughter of Adrianna Williams and Wilson — was found abandoned in a stranger’s yard in neighboring Dyer County.
Adrianna Williams and Braydon Williams were siblings, and Rose was their mother. Officials say Drummond had been dating a close relative of the victims.
The Jackson Police Department said the surveillance video showing Drummond was captured in the 700 block of Pipkin Road and cautioned residents to “exercise extra caution as you come and go from your homes.”
Drummond is seen wearing a camouflage hoodie and a brown backpack.
While investigators said earlier in the day they believed Drummond may have left the state, Jackson police said Monday night they believed he was still in the Jackson area. SWAT teams spent the day searching the area.
Three people have been arrested and charged with helping the fugitive. All three are from Jackson, and on Friday, authorities found a truck Drummond was believed to be driving in Dyer County.
Drummond was recently released from prison, where he served time for an aggravated robbery, and he was out of jail on bond for an incident that happened while he was in prison, according to NBC News.
