Editor’s note: This story has been updated to show that Brenna Swindell has been found.
The 29-year-old daughter of former Major League Baseball player Greg Swindell has been found after she was reported missing Thursday.
Brenna Swindell, a mother of three, was missing from the Austin area since Thursday, her mother, Sarah Swindell, said in a Facebook post. Her father, Greg Swindell, pitched for the University of Texas and had a 17-year MLB career.
Police found Brenna Swindell with her ex-boyfriend, Morgan Guidry, in her vehicle about 1 a.m. Tuesday in Klamath Falls, Oregon, the Travis County sheriff’s office said in a news release.
Guidry was arrested on a Travis County sheriff’s office warrant charging him with assaulting and strangling Brenna Swindell, a third-degree felony. Guidry was in custody as of Tuesday morning. The assault took place on July 7, the sheriff’s office said, but Brenna Swindell did not decide to press charges until Aug. 20.
Travis County sheriff’s deputies conducted a welfare check at Brenna Swindell’s apartment on Saturday at her parents’ request, but they did not find her or her vehicle, the news release said. Greg Swindell reported her missing on Sunday.
“She has been found,” Greg Swindell said in a post on the social platform X Tuesday morning. “Thatâs all we have for now. Thank you to everyone. And I mean everyone who helped in the process.”
According to Austin police, Brenna Swindell and Guidry were last seen together about 10:20 p.m. Thursday at Poodies Hilltop Roadhouse in Spicewood. Law enforcement tracked her white 2022 Kia Carnival to Colorado by Friday evening.
Arrest affidavit filed for Morgan Guidry a day after disappearance
An affidavit for an arrest warrant filed Friday states that Guidry strangled his girlfriend multiple times and slammed her head onto the floor at an apartment complex July 7.
The victim was not named in the affidavit, but the Travis County sheriff’s office confirmed she was Brenna Swindell.
The woman suffered numerous injuries, including to her clavicle, head, neck and hand. She told deputies that she threw a box of ammunition on the ground and ran to an exit while Guidry grabbed a rifle, the affidavit says. She told deputies she believed Guidry would kill her.
When authorities responded to the apartment, Guidry had left with his rifle, but they found the loose ammunition on the ground, the affidavit says.
