NEWS RELEASE
SUBJECT: Kingsport Police Seeking Specific Witness to February 22nd Fatal Crash
DATE: February 28, 2018
CASE #: 18-005706
GENERAL NARRATIVE
Over the course of the investigation into the February 22, 2018 East Stone Drive crash that claimed the life of a Kingsport woman, Crash Reconstructionists from the Kingsport Police Department Traffic Unit have received what they believe to be reliable information to lead them to believe that there was in fact an as of yet unidentified independent witness to this crash.

This particular witness is believed to have been traveling along the same stretch of roadway and to have observed firsthand Mr. Johnson’s 1996 Chevrolet Blazer on the wrong side of East Stone Drive prior to it impacting the 1998 Chevrolet Blazer occupied by Mr. Beavers and Ms. Moore. This witness is believed to have had to take evasive action himself to keep from being struck as well.

This witness, whomever he may be, is asked to come forward as soon as possible and contact Crash Investigators with the K.P.D. Traffic Unit by calling 423-224-2750 or call Kingsport Central Dispatch at 423-246-9111. Specific details, that he and only he could provide, could potentially prove extremely important to this investigation and would be greatly appreciated.

As previously released:

On February 22, 2018 at approximately 6:40 AM, Kingsport Central Dispatch was notified of a serious motor vehicle collision on East Stone Drive near the intersection of Stonebrook Place in Kingsport. Kingsport Police Patrol Officers initially responded to the scene; however, due to the seriousness of the crash, the K.P.D. Traffic Unit soon arrived on scene to assume responsibility for the investigation that followed.

Crash Investigators have determined that there were two vehicles involved that were coincidentally both black Chevrolet Blazer mid-sized sport utility vehicles from the late 1990s. A 1996 black Chevrolet Blazer, driven by Brian E. Johnson, was eastbound on East Stone Drive while a 1998 black Chevrolet Blazer, driven by Brandon O. Beavers and occupied by front seat passenger, Tiffany L. Moore, was traveling westbound on East Stone Drive.

The two vehicles were approaching the intersection with Stonebrook Place from opposite directions when, for unknown reasons, the 1996 Blazer swerved to the left, crossed the center turn lane, entered the oncoming traffic lanes and began traveling eastbound in the westbound lanes until it collided head-on with the 1998 Blazer.

Ms. Moore was killed in the crash. Mr. Beavers sustained serious injuries and was transported to an area healthcare facility for emergency medical treatment. Despite being seriously injured as well, Mr. Johnson fled the scene on foot, running up Arbutus Avenue toward Bloomingdale Pike. He was soon apprehended by a responding K.P.D. Patrol Officer.

Mr. Johnson was transported to an area healthcare facility for emergency medical treatment where he was ultimately admitted. While he remains hospitalized, he continues to be under police supervision and has been charged with a litany of criminal offenses to include the following:

1) Aggravated Vehicular Homicide

2) Vehicular Homicide

3) Aggravated Assault

4) Vehicular Assault

5) Driving Under the Influence (4th Offense)

6) Driving on a Revoked License (1st Offense)

7) Leaving the Scene of a Crash Involving Death and Personal Injury

8) Possession of Stolen Property (Stolen License Plate on Vehicle)

9) Possession of Unlawful Drug Paraphernalia (Marijuana Pipe)

10) Failure to Comply with Financial Responsibility (No Insurance)

11) Also wanted on multiple preexisting outstanding arrest warrants from other jurisdictions

As this incident remains under active investigation by the K.P.D. Traffic Unit, no additional details will be released at this time.

As previously released:

On February 22, 2018 as of approximately 11:15 AM, all lanes of East Stone Drive at Stonebrook Place in Kingsport are back open for traffic. The investigation into the serious crash that resulted in the earlier roadway closure is still ongoing by the K.P.D. Traffic Unit. Additional details will be released at the appropriate point in the investigation.

As previously released:

On February 22, 2018 at approximately 6:40 AM, Kingsport Central Dispatch was notified of a serious motor vehicle collision on East Stone Drive near the intersection of Stonebrook Place in Kingsport. Officers are currently on scene investigating the crash.

All westbound lanes of East Stone Drive are completely shut down for the time being and will likely stay that was for a couple of hours. Eastbound lanes are currently flowing, but will likely become congested due to heavy commuter traffic.

Motorists are encouraged to avoid the area and plan an alternate route. Motorists already in the immediate area are encouraged to exercise caution and patience, obey all traffic instructions, and drive with a heightened sense of situational awareness.

Additional information and traffic updates will be released as they become available.

Moving Towards Better

Regions Bank will soon house city hall

A plan that’s been in the making for years has finally been put into motion – consolidating four of Kingsport’s government buildings into one. The Board of Mayor and Alderman voted to purchase the current Regions Bank building, located on Broad Street, to become the new space for residents to take care of all their city needs.

The city purchased the Regions Bank building for $2.82 million to support operational effectiveness, better serve Kingsport residents and help provide more secured courtrooms for the city.

Why move?

“The most expensive option,” says Ryan McReynolds, Asst. City Manager, “is to do nothing.”

The city had an opportunity to consolidate city services and improve efficiency as well as the overall customer service experience and it followed through. Long term, this is a financial savings to the city.

The 4 C’s – Courtrooms, Customers, Collaboration, & Consolidation
  • Courtrooms

Better security, modernization and more support offices will happen in the estimated $2.3 million expanding and renovating of the current Justice Center. Better and more modern courtrooms have been a need for quite some time. The city will consolidate the courtrooms to be only in the Justice Center.

  • Customers

By having most departments, such as customer service, building, procurement, in one location, it creates an improved customer interaction for residents, eliminating the need to travel to multiple city buildings within the city.

  • Collaboration

Working with community partners Regions Bank and local architectural firms, the city is working to improve service to citizens. This is a top priority and what continues to drive decisions.

  • Consolidation

The current city hall building isn’t ADA accessible and in need of repair. The estimated cost to fix the building and bring it up to ADA standards is over $3.1 million. By combining the four current city buildings and over 100 city employees into one, not only does it allow for better efficiency, but also allows the city to put those buildings back on the tax roll for private use.

What’s next?

Renovations to Regions Bank will start very soon, with floors 3 through 6 completed first. Renovations to the Justice Center to increase courtroom space and provide offices will begin in the fall.

Public parking is available at and around the Regions Bank building. On Clay & New Street, there are over 70 spaces. At the Kingsport Library, there are over 50 spaces. At 5 Points, there are over 75 spaces and at Regions Bank, there are over 75 spaces reserved just for customers. Between these four parking locations within close proximity to Regions Bank, customers and employees have over 270 parking spots.

The departments that interact most with Kingsport residents will be located on the first and second floor. Customer service and the building department are on the first floor and and city manager, administration and development services on the second.

Kingsport hopes to have the move complete by summer of 2020.

“We want city hall to remain at the heart of the city and I think this move will continue that,” said McReynolds.

NEWS RELEASE
SUBJECT: Unhelmeted Reckless Motorcyclist Seriously Injured in Restaurant Parking Lot Crash
DATE: February 22, 2018
CASE #: 18-005691
GENERAL NARRATIVE
On February 21, 2018 at approximately 11:30 PM, Kingsport Central Dispatch was notified of a serious motor vehicle collision involving a motorcycle in the parking lot of Buffalo Wild Wings, located at 1721 East Stone Drive in Kingsport. Kingsport Police Patrol Officers initially responded to the scene; however, due to the seriousness of injuries, the K.P.D. Traffic Unit was summoned to the scene to investigate the crash. Their findings thus far are as follow:

A 2016 Suzuki GSXR 600 racing style motorcycle was being ridden through the parking lot by Jarred Lee Delph. Mr. Delph was not wearing a helmet and was operating the motorcycle recklessly and at a high rate of speed. Meanwhile, a 2001 Honda Civic compact 4-door sedan, being driven in a safe and lawful manner by Joshua D. Moyers, was entering the rear of the parking lot from an entrance off of Indian Trail Drive.

The motorcycle crashed into the passenger side of the Honda. Neither Mr. Moyers nor his sole passenger sustained any injuries; however, Mr. Delph sustained serious injuries that were no doubt aggravated by the fact that he was not wearing a helmet. Mr. Delph was transported to a local medical facility by Sullivan County E.M.S. and currently remains hospitalized in the Intensive Care Unit.

The collision currently remains under active investigation by Crash Reconstructionists from the K.P.D. Traffic Unit who are following up on suspicions that alcohol impairment and underage consumption were potential additional factors in the incident. Charges are pending.

KPD e-News Release: Two Female Suspects Identified and Indicted in 2017 Quasi Home Invasion Type Robbery

NEWS RELEASE
SUBJECT: Two Female Suspects Identified and Indicted in 2017 Quasi Home Invasion Type Robbery
DATE: February 22, 2018
CASE #: 17-000597
GENERAL NARRATIVE
Two women have recently been indicted by a Sullivan County Grand Jury in a January 2017 quasi home invasion type robbery that occurred at Cross Creek Apartments, located at 2601 North John B. Dennis Highway in Kingsport. The identities of the suspects were not originally known which resulted in the issuance of a news release at the time requesting citizen tips.

Through extensive further investigation by the Kingsport Police Department Criminal Investigation Division, to include DNA evidentiary analysis by the TBI Crime Laboratory, Taylor A. Nunnery and April B. Chambers were positively identified as the two suspects in question. Both were later indicted for Aggravated Robbery by the Sullivan County Grand Jury.

Ms. Nunnery has since been arrested; however, Ms. Chambers is still wanted. She is very much aware of the outstanding warrant and the serious charges against her, yet she presently remains at large and continues to actively avoiding arrest. She has failed to meet with law enforcement on three separate opportunities scheduled for her to turn herself in.

Ms. Chambers is a 23 year old white female adult, with brown eyes and blonde hair, standing 5 feet 5 inches in height and weighing 140 pounds. A recent photograph of her is included in this release. Anyone who knows her current whereabouts is asked to contact the K.P.D. Criminal Investigations Division at 423-229-9429 or call Kingsport Central Dispatch at 423-246-9111.

Alternatively, if an individual who is able to supply information related to this or any other case wishes not to be identified, tips can be submitted anonymously via online “Citizen Feedback” forms available at the following link:

As previously released:

On January 10, 2017 at approximately 12:45 AM, Kingsport Police Patrol Officers responded to a quasi home invasion type robbery at Cross Creek Apartments, located at 2601 North John B. Dennis Highway in Kingsport. Upon arrival, the officer spoke with the adult male victim who reported the following:

He was lying in bed when he heard a knock at the door. Upon opening the door, he was approached by two women, previously unknown to him, who strangely claimed that they had been calling him repeatedly on the telephone with no answer. He told them that he had received no such calls and that they apparently had him confused with someone else.

They asked to come inside under the premise of using the restroom to which he consented. They engaged in conversation and ended up staying for about an hour “making small-talk.” All of a sudden, one of the women produced a hand-held stun gun and delivered an unprovoked shock to the victim.

A fight ensued during which the victim punched the woman in self-defense. During the struggle, the other woman was running around the apartment yelling, “Where is his wallet?” The victim ran outside and shouted for someone to call the police. He shut the apartment door, hoping to keep them contained inside until police arrival.

Upon arrival, responding officers discovered that the two suspects had escaped from the apartment through a bedroom window, but not before stealing the victim’s cell phone (Samsung Galaxy S6) and his wallet (containing his credit cards, approximately $150 in cash, and his driver license).

The officers searched the area for the suspects to no avail. They did, however, locate blood both inside and outside of the apartment that is believed to have come from the suspect that the victim punched.

The suspects’ descriptions are as follows:

Suspect #1

White Female

Approximately 25 Years of Age

Approximately 5 feet 9 inches in height

Thin Build

Straight, shoulder-length, blonde hair

Unknown Clothing Description

Suspect #2

White female

Unknown Age

Approximately 5 feet 5 inches in height

Approximately 120 pounds in weight

Straight hair, below shoulder, dyed an unnatural dark red

Wearing a dark colored jacket and carrying a dark blue/green purse

Both suspects were smoking cigarettes. The red-haired suspect is believed to have a fresh facial injury sustained during the incident. They were believed to be traveling in a dark colored, older model, Honda or similarly styled vehicle.

Anyone who has any information which may assist Detectives with developing the identities of the suspects in question is asked to contact the K.P.D. Criminal Investigations Division at 423-229-9429 or call Kingsport Central Dispatch at 423-246-9111.
