On April 13, 2021, members of the Lewis County Sheriff's Department simultaneously went to two separate addresses to serve active warrants on an individual, one of those addresses being 370 Paul Spears Road in Lewis County. Upon attempting to make contact, deputies observed the wanted person in question, Colby Wayne Spears, 28, exiting a 2011 Ford F350 dually that was reported stolen out of Lawrence County on April 4th. Spears fled on foot with deputies giving chase. Along with the stolen Ford F350, deputies observed multiple stolen items reported out of Lewis County.

A search warrant was obtained for the property which produced property that was reported stolen by Swan Creek Farms owners Paul Rawdon and Randall Hinson on April 8, 2021.

On April 9, Maury County Sheriff's Department Investigator and Lewis County Investigators recovered a 2002 Dodge Ram Service truck belonging to Swan Creek Farms off Brown Workman Road in Mt. Pleasant. Evidence was collected at this scene and the Maury County Sheriff's Department charged two individuals in connection with this case.

On April 16, 2021 the Tennessee Highway Patrol sighted a black Chevrolet S10 pickup being driven by Spears in Maury County. An attempt to conduct a traffic stop was made and Spears fled troopers, ending up on Walker Road in Lewis County. Spears was taken into custody after a foot pursuit.

Spears was transported to the Lewis County Jail on the outstanding warrants, felony probation violation and felony evading arrest from an incident on January 6, 2021.

Lewis County Investigators are currently working this case and request any information from the public involving this case. At this time, charges are currently pending from this matter.

Sheriff Dwayne Kilpatrick would like to thank the Maury County Sheriff's Department, Lawrence County Sheriff's Department and Tennessee Highway Patrol with assistance in this case.
