Four Vicksburg people were arrested on charges of uttering forgeries after being picked up on warrants during a traffic stop and at home Tuesday afternoon, Vicksburg police Sgt. Sandra Williams said.

Maurice Terrell Jackson, 30, 109 South Drive, and Shawn Jones, 35, 530 Hugo St., were arrested at 3:52 p.m. in the 1900 block of Drummond Street for cashing counterfeit checks, amounts and description not provided.

A patrolman recognized Jackson from a warrant issued in a forgery at River City Liquor, 2192 Iowa Blvd. Jones was wanted for four counts, but details of those crimes were unavailable.

During their arrests, police found a $652.19 counterfeit Gulf South Pipeline payroll check and a $521.87 counterfeit DBA Scottish Inn payroll check in Jones’ possession, said Williams.

The men were traveling in a vehicle registered to Jones’ girlfriend,  Kimberly Treshae Harper, 35, 3120 Second St., Williams said. When she arrived to pick up the car, the patrolman arrested her on a warrant for cashing a $531.59 counterfeit Scottish Inn payroll check also at the liquor store on July 25.

Less than an hour later, Jimmie Jackson, 26, also of 3120 Second St., was arrested at her home for cashing a $534.63 counterfeit Scottish Inn payroll check at the same liquor store, also on July 25.

Williams said she believes the two women cashed the checks together.
