KINGSPORT POLICE ARE INVESTIGATING THE DISCOVERY OF A BODY FOUND IN THE CITY. DETECTIVE RANDY MURRAY WENT TO AN ALLEN DRIVE APARTMENT TO DO A WELFARE CHECK ON THE LANDLORD, JIMMY WAYNE MULLINS, WHO HADN’T BEEN SEEN FOR SEVERAL DAYS. WHEN HE GOT THERE HE NOTICED A FOUL ODOR COMING FROM A NEARBY SHED. IT’S UNCLEAR AT THIS TIME IF THE BODY IS THAT OF MULLINS BUT AN AUTOPSY IS BEING PERFORMED TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF DEATH AND IDENTITY. THE INVESTIGATION IS CONTINUING.
