$12,500 Offered For Tips That Find Escaped Teen In Nashville

MNPD

Authorities are now offering a total of $12,500 for information leading to the capture of a teen who escaped a Tennessee juvenile detention center last month. 

News outlets report the company that operates Nashville's juvenile detention center has pledged $10,000 for information leading to 17-year-old Brandon Caruthers.

The state Bureau of Investigation has added a reward of $2,500 for Caruthers' capture. Three other juveniles who escaped with him last month have been caught.

Authorities say Caruthers should be considered armed and dangerous.
