FITNESS MOM MISSY BEVERS BLUDGEONED DEAD IN LOCAL CHURCH: BREAK IN CASE?

Missy Bevers arrives at Creekside Church at 4:16 AM and begins setting up for her 5 AM fitness class.

She doesn't realize that someone else is in the building. Video surveillance shows a person dressed in full police SWAT tactical gear walking through the halls of the church with an unusual gait while clutching a hammer.

Shortly before 5 AM, one of Bevers' students arrives, finding Bevers' body inside the church. Bevers has puncture wounds to her head and chest. The student calls 911. In minutes, police and rescue arrive, and Missy Bevers is pronounced dead on the scene.

Creekside church has surveillance cameras inside and out of their property. Still, in a tough break for cops, the outside cameras don't work. Police rule out Missy Bevers' husband, Brandon, as he was on an annual fishing trip at the time of the murder.

However, Missy Bevers' death investigation now includes a vehicle of interest that police say was captured on surveillance cameras at a nearby business just before the murder. It is a 2010-2012 Nissan Altima, silver or light color, with an oval sticker on its bumper.
