TNSAR Search 6/26/2020

Overdue Hiker Fulton Crescent Area

Submitted by Dirk Schoonmaker

At about 8 pm TNSAR was dispatched to an overdue hiker at the trailhead at the end of Fulton Crescent in the Old County Road area. Upon arrival we got more information and were advised that the MP had left a suicide type note and a handgun was missing from his house. His truck was at the trailhead and he had not been seen since noon.

We were left the option to cancel deployment but decided to continue the search. Hikers, mountain bikers, motorcycles and quads set out in different directions mostly checking trails and overlooks. After a couple of hours, at about 11 pm, we decided the best strategy would be to start doing more of a grid search in the closer vicinity of the trailhead and shortly after that the team on foot found the MP deceased about 800 meters from the trailhead.
