The Austin Police Department has formally opened a missing persons investigation into the disappearance of a former Major League Baseball player’s 29-year-old daughter from the Austin area.
Brenna Swindell is the mother of three and the daughter of longtime pitcher Greg Swindell, who played for the University of Texas and had a 17-year career in the MLB. She has been missing since Thursday, her mother, Sarah Swindell, said in a Facebook post. The disappearance is uncharacteristic of Brenna, who would “never abandon her 3 children or just take off without explanation,” the post says.
According to the Austin Police Department, Brenna Swindell and her former boyfriend, Morgan 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.
Sarah Swindell said her daughter’s former boyfriend was “violent” and has a history of abusive behavior, the Facebook post says.
Brenna Swindell’s ex-boyfriend and her van were possibly sighted in Colorado Springs, according to a flyer shared by the organization Missing People in America.
Both Brenna Swindell’s and her former boyfriend’s phones “seem to be (in Colorado) but both are turned off,” the Facebook post says.
Brenna Swindell is 5-foot-5 and about 120 pounds with brown shoulder-length hair. She has a sleeve tattoo with flowers on one arm and a spider web on the other shoulder, the post says.
The Austin Police Department’s Missing Person Unit can be reached at 512-974-5250. If you live outside of Austin and need to make a report, please call 512-974-5000.
