State Police have yet to confirm a second murder in Roane County.
Allegedly dead of one or more gunshot wounds is a male, whose body was discovered on Grannies Creek, a remote area between Amma and Newton, not far from I-79.
A neighbor reported he heard gunshots coming from the old Fred Hall farm, saying that a body was discovered under a piece of tin.
The State Police Crime Lab was on the scene not long after the incident occurred, sometime mid-afternoon today.
Traffic was blocked on the rural road, near the crime scene.
Early reports indicate authorities are looking for a woman, who was said to have fled the scene.
Neighbors said a man and women were removing building materials from an old barn on the the property. |
