An ‘armed and dangerous’ felon was on the run in Tennessee after police said he killed four people and left their baby girl on a random front lawn.

The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is on the lookout for Austin Robert Drummond, 28, in relation to the tragic deaths of Adrianna Williams, 20; Matthew Wilson, 21; Cortney Rose, 38; and Braydon Williams, 15.

Drummond had dated a relative of Williams, according to the District Attorney of Dyer and Lake County Danny Goodman. 

Goodman reassured locals there was no further threat to the public while explaining that the victims were not ‘randomly chosen,’ WMC reports.

However, Drummond remains on the loose and police warn he should be considered armed and dangerous.

He faces charges of first-degree murder, kidnapping, and illegal firearm possession. The US Marshals Service is incentivizing information that leads to his capture with a reward of up to $7,500.

The suspect was last seen driving his white Audi A3 sedan with visible damage to the drivers’ side and the Tennessee license plate RI 01896. 

Drummond is approximately five-foot-10-inches tall, weighs about 190 pounds, and has blue eyes, brown hair, and a goatee. Authorities caution that he could have changed his appearance recently.

Police in Tennessee are searching for Austin Robert Drummond, 28, in connection with a quadruple homicide on Tuesdy

Adrianna Williams, 20 and Matthew Wilson, 21, were found dead in a dense, wooded area

Cortney Rose, 38, Braydon Williams, 15, were also both found dead

Police say they were first alerted about the quadruple homicide on Tuesday when a good Samaritan in a quiet, rural town in northwest Tennessee spotted an infant in a car set alone on the front lawn.

The resident reported that a dark-colored minivan or white SUV had pulled into the yard, dropped off the child and sped away. 

As law enforcement then tried to locate the infant’s family, a second, far more chilling discovery was made only hours later in nearby Lake County.

Chilling dispatch audio reveals that police received a call at around 10.26pm reporting Rose and her daughter missing.

The caller could be heard saying they were actively searching the family’s home with a flashlight.

Eventually, investigators found the four bodies in a dense, wooded area. 

On Wednesday, the foursome were all confirmed to be the immediate family of the abandoned child.

Adrianna and Matthew were the baby’s parents, and Cortney was the maternal grandmother. Braydon was also Adrianna’s younger brother.   

Authorities now believe that Drummond left the infant on the lawn just minutes before carrying out a coordinated killing of the family in a neighboring county.

The victims were all family members of an infant who was abandoned on a random front lawn

Drummond had a previous criminal conviction for aggravated robbery and was sentenced to 13 years behind bars

The cause of the family’s deaths remains unclear as is the condition in which they were found, but sources close to the investigation have described it as a ‘gruesome, execution-style’ killing.

Drummond had a previous criminal conviction for aggravated robbery and was sentenced to 13 years behind bars, WREG reports. He was finally released in September.

The suspect is now also facing additional charges stemming from his time in prison, including attempted first degree murder and drug charges.

‘He’s not a stranger to violent offenses, so he is a dangerous individual and people just need to take precautions,’ District Attorney Goodman said of Drummond, who is now on the state’s ‘most wanted’ list.
