TBI seeks clues in Greenbriar Homicide Greenbriar, TN- The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation is searching for clues in a weekend homicide that occurred in Greenbriar, Tennessee. Motorists who were traveling on Highway 41 Friday night say they saw Miguel Francisco’s body struck by a vehicle at around 9:00 p.m. Witnesses also describe one of the vehicles in that area as a red SUV, possibly a Jeep Cherokee.

At this time, TBI agents are trying to determine exactly where the victim had been living at the time of his death and who he may have had contact with in the weeks leading up to his death.
