Police went to serve the first-degree murder warrant and heard someone moving around in the home. They made access to the home with a robot and since learned the home is empty.

They believe the noise was made by dogs.

Austin, 23, was killed October 1, 2013, in the 5000 block of South 36th West Avenue. Tulsa Police say someone in an SUV shot Austin several times. He was pronounced dead at a Tulsa hospital a short time later.

A second man charged with Austin's murder, Laron Tucker, 36, of Bristow is in the Tulsa County jail awaiting trial.
