A Vicksburg man and a juvenile were arrested early Saturday, accused of an auto burglary reported just 8 minutes earlier.
Alex Hawkins, 20, 780 U.S. 61 North Apt. 4F, and a juvenile were arrested as they were driving into the parking lot of Hawkins’ apartment complex after neighbors called 911 at 1:44 a.m. after seeing suspicious activity in the 200 block of Berryman Road, said Lt. Davey Barnette.
Hawkins and the juvenile are accused of taking a radio face plate and a carton of cigarettes from a 1993 Ford F-150 pickup parked in the area, he said.
Hawkins was in the Issaquena County Jail on a $10,000 bond, and the juvenile was at the Warren County Youth Detention Center.
