A Vicksburg man, one of four men suspected in the Jan. 9 armed robbery of two men in an apartment complex parking lot, was in jail Saturday facing robbery and drug charges, Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace said.
Jeffery Tyrone Langston, 22, 800 Hickory St., was arrested at 8:30 Saturday morning as deputies served an arrest warrant at the home he shared with relatives.
While looking for Langston, Pace said deputies smelled and saw marijuana in Langston’s bedroom. They secured the room, sent another deputy to get a search warrant from Justice Court, then returned to find less than an ounce of marijuana, packaging materials, scales and $5,400 in cash, Pace said.
Pace said relatives were at the home when the marijuana was found, but no other arrests were made.
Langston and three others — Jacoby Johnson, 22, Bryant Kevin Williams, 19, and Domonic Rashard Turner, 20 — are accused of robbing two men in the parking lot of the Apple Orchard Apartments, 902 Blossom Lane, on Jan. 9 in which two gold chains, two cell phones and $15 were reported stolen, Pace said.
During a traffic stop Jan. 9, Johnson, Williams and Turner were arrested, but Langston fled on foot, Pace said. The cell phones and one of the chains were recovered from the vehicle. The other chain reported stolen was recovered in the parking lot.
Johnson and Williams are out of jail on bond, while Turner remains in the Warren County Jail on $10,000 bond, records showed.
