The Shelby County Sheriff's Office has launched a manhunt for 27-year-old Gabrielle Jones, accused of multiple stabbings on Thanksgiving Day. In a series of incidents that point to a domestic dispute turned violent, Jones is now at the center of a police search with serious charges hanging over her head. According to an alert published by Action News 5 and corroborated by reports from FOX13 Memphis and WREG News Channel 3, Jones faces charges including attempted second-degree murder, aggravated assault/domestic violence, and aggravated assault.

The incident unfolded in the 4200 block of Hacks Cross Road in Southeast Memphis, the scene described by local authorities as the origin of the violent episode that left multiple people with stab wounds. The sheriff's office warns that Jones, who is considered "armed and dangerous," is likely traveling in a white BMW X3, registration BRS6716. Despite the clear danger she poses to the public, there is a pressing concern for her immediate capture. As the community reels from the violence visited upon it, officials have not disclosed the condition of the victims nor the full extent of their injuries.

In an appeal for public assistance to apprehend the suspect, authorities urge anyone with information on Jones' whereabouts to contact CrimeStoppers or the Shelby County Sheriff's Office directly. "If you have any idea where Jones may be, SCSO urged you to call Crimestoppers," reads the statement from FOX13 Memphis, pointing to a community that has become an inadvertent participant in this ongoing investigation. Confidentiality for those who provide tips is stressed to make sure the flow of information remains unimpeded by fear of reprisal.
