The U.S. Marshals Lone Star Fugitive Task Force is assisting with the investigation of an Austin woman wanted for a homicide that occurred May 11 in the 1700 block of Maple Avenue. That investigation has led authorities to believe Kaitlin Marie Armstrong, 34, may have fled to New York just days after the murder of Anna Moriah Wilson.
A woman believed to be Armstrong was at the Austin-Bergstrom International Bergstrom Airport on May 14 at approximately 12:30 p.m. She boarded a flight from Austin to Houston’s Hobby Airport before catching a connecting flight to LaGuardia Airport in New York City.
Austin police issued a homicide warrant May 17 for Armstrong, who is suspected of killing Anna Moriah Wilson, 25, a Vermont native and world class cyclist, who was in Austin for a race.
Police responding to a call at the East Austin residence discovered Wilson bleeding and unconscious from multiple gunshot wounds. They performed CPR on her, but she was pronounced dead at the scene.
Armstrong is white, stands 5 feet 8 inches and weighs approximately 125 pounds. She has light brown long, curly hair and hazel eyes and was last seen on surveillance video wearing a blue denim jacket, black shirt with a pink design on the chest, white jeans, black and white tennis shoes, a black COVID mask, and a possible yoga mat carrier on her shoulders.
Anyone with information on Armstrong’s whereabouts is urged to contact the U.S. Marshals Service Communications Center at 1-800-336-0102 or submit a tip using the USMS Tips app.
Tips may also be sent to the Capital Area Crime Stoppers at 1-800-893-8477.
