Tulsa Police are searching for a person of interest after his mother was found dead in a bathtub on Wednesday night.

Police say Tommy Carmichel was last seen running into the woods at Chandler park overnight, leading to a multi-agency search.

Officers say they found Carol Longacre dead at a home near 61st and Peoria around 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday and learned her son Tommy Carmichel was the only person at the home with her. Then they realized the victim's car was missing.

According to police, officers found Carmichel at a home in Berryhill but he took off and led police on a short chase. They say Carmichel then ran into the woods at Chandler Park.

Tulsa County deputies and Sand Springs police helped set up a perimeter around Chandler park while officers searched for Carmichel, but they say they could not find him.

“It is possible, I have my doubts, but it is possible, from what we understand from friends and family he is an experienced outdoorsman, he’s the type that can genuinely live off the land so its a possibility, but its more than likely he got out of the area and is on the run."

Police ask anyone with information on Carmichel's whereabouts to call crime stoppers at 918-596-COPS. You can leave an anonymous tip.
