Police seized 49.2 grams of suspected heroin in a West Outer Drive home during a search after the shooting on Wakefield Road and three-car crash on North Illinois Avenue on Monday, authorities said.
The Oak Ridge Police Department has also made an arrest in the case. Chelsea Reign Lively, 22, was arrested Thursday, the City of Oak Ridge said in a press release. She was charged with possessing Schedule I (heroin) and Schedule VI (marijuana) drugs for sale.
Authorities said further charges against Lively are expected.
Police said Larry Dewayne Williams was identified as a person of interest in the shooting when he fled from the ORPD shortly after the shooting and allegedly caused a three-car crash at the intersection of North Illinois Avenue and West Outer Drive.
Officers—including members of the ORPD, Anderson County Sheriff’s Department, the crime task force, and an ACSD K-9 unit—swarmed the area and searched for Williams. That led officers to a home at 612 West Outer Drive, where they said they executed a search warrant on Tuesday and recovered additional evidence. The house is the home of Lively and Williams, according to arrest warrants filed in Anderson County General Sessions Court.
“The search warrant commanded that all controlled substances be seized as evidence,” said the warrants, filed by ORPD Detective Kevin Craig.
The warrants said the suspected heroin was field tested and yielded a presumptive positive result for heroin.
Police also allegedly found about 7.72 ounces of suspected marijuana in the house.
“The suspected marijuana will be sent to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation for analysis at a later date,” the warrants said.
ORPD has an active arrest warrant for Williams for violation of parole.
“He is considered to be armed and extremely dangerous,” the press release said.
The shooting was reported at about 8:30 p.m. Monday, September 21, on the 100 block of Wakefield Road, at the intersection with Wadsworth Circle. The three-car crash was reported about two hours later at the intersection of West Outer Drive and North Illinois Avenue, an area that locals refer to as “Hilltop.” The driver of a silver Infiniti allegedly fled from the crash, and police later identified him as Williams.
Police said anyone who comes into contact with Williams should immediately notify the nearest law enforcement agency.
“Anyone with further information is requested to contact Craig at (865) 425-3511 or (865) 425-4399, the press release said.

Lively remained jailed at the Anderson County Detention Facility in Clinton on Friday afternoon. Her bond has been set at $85,000, according to the warrants.
More information will be added as it becomes available.
Police say the driver of this silver Infiniti fled on foot after a three-car crash at North Illinois Avenue and West Outer Drive on Monday night, Sept. 21, 2015, just a few hours after a shooting was reported a short distance away on Wakefield Road, the third shooting there in 48 hours. Police have since described the driver as a person of interest in the Monday night shooting and crash. Pictured above at center are ORPD officers James Elkins and Garrett Robbins.
