A car that may have been involved in a kidnapping and shooting was found Monday near an abandoned building on Dutchman Row in Jackson, police said.
There was no sign of the missing 17-year-old girl or the suspect. Police are searching the area.
The Mississippi Highway Patrol issued an Amber Alert for a teen who disappeared Sunday morning. Dewayne Thompson is suspected of kidnapping Katelyn Beard, police said. Investigators are searching for Thompson in connection with the early morning shooting and kidnapping on Lynda Street.
“There are indicators inside the residence that the blood and other evidence indicated that a shooting did take place and possibly with this victim,” said Colendula Green of Jackson police.
Police said Beard is with Thompson. Detectives said Thompson put Beard in a 2009 Nissan Altima and fled the scene.
Police said Thompson is considered armed and dangerous.
