Eliza Fletcher is still missing.
Memphis Police Department arrested Cleotha Abston, 38, and charged him with especially aggravated kidnapping and tampering with evidence.Abston would not tell police where to find Fletcher, an affidavit said. Police said the physical evidence and facts of the case lead them to believe Fletcher “suffered serious injury.”Fletcher, 34, was jogging early Friday morning when a man approached her and forced her into a dark-colored GMC Terrain after a brief struggle.
Police interviewed a witness who told them Abston went to his brother’s house Friday around 10:00 a.m. The witness told police Abston was “cleaning the interior of the GMC Terrain with floor cleaner” and he was “behaving oddly.” Saturday morning, a U.S. Marshals task force went to the address and saw the vehicle and Abston standing in the doorway. He attempted to flee but was captured, according to the affidavit.
