Grubbs Apprehended

Former Bedford County sheriff's deputy Ernest Grubbs was caught Wednesday in Kentucky with 16-year-old Audrey McCombs. Authorities spotted Grubbs' vehicle leaving a gas station near the border with West Virginia, a few miles from Interstate 64.




Audrey McCombs was in the vehicle with Grubbs. She is safe and will likely be reunited with her family in Bedford by Thursday.

Grubbs, the former Bedford County sheriff's deputy, was fired from his job as Liberty High School’s resource officer when he was arrested last month. He’s been hit with an additional charge of abduction.
