This is an update to a story we brought you on December 28, 2018. That Friday, at approximately 6:30pm, Middlesboro Police and Fire/EMS responded to a Rochester Avenue residence after a call of a serious assault on Wayne A. Raines. The severe injuries sent Mr. Raines to UT Hospital for treatment. Those responsible had not been identified at the time.

On February 7, 2019 Middlesboro Police Officer Michael Bradley took out a complaint warrant that stated that Antwan S. Brown of Middlesboro and another individual intentionally caused serious physical injury to Mr. Raines “by means of a dangerous instrument”. The complaint goes on to state that the men struck Raines with “poles” on his head and body and that he was treated at UT Hospital. Raines had head trauma and loss of vision in his left eye during the incident.
On Sunday, June 16, 2019 just after 3:00pm Officer Bradley with the assistance of Officer Robin Venable, arrested Antwan Brown at the intersection of Cumberland Avenue and 22nd Street.
