The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation has issued an urgent appeal to the public for assistance in tracking down a suspect involved in a grave crime. Austin Robert Drummond, born August 31, 1996, is wanted on charges of First Degree Murder, Kidnapping, and additional charges in relation to the deaths of four individuals. The call for vigilance was amplified by a post on TBI's official social media channels, where they have shared critical details regarding the suspect's description and potential whereabouts.
Standing at approximately 5 feet 10 inches and weighing around 190 pounds, Drummond is characterized by his brown hair, blue eyes, and a distinctive goatee, though authorities caution that he may have sought to alter his appearance to evade capture. At 29 years old, he is believed to possibly be driving a 2016 Audi A3, described as having sustained damage to the driver's side with Tennessee license plate RI 01896. In what became an unmistakable plea, TBI emphasized the seriousness of the situation by cautioning the public that Drummond should be considered armed and dangerous, imploring citizens to maintain a safe distance and refrain from engagement.
The TBI has provided several lines of communication for those who might have information leading to Drummond's apprehension. They have made it clear that anyone spotting him should not attempt to approach but immediately call 911 or contact the TBI at 731-415-7962, 731-333-0811, or their toll-free number 1-800-TBI-FIND.
