Morris Tallie 31 of Oxford & Christopher Kirkwood 33 of Oxford

On Saturday November 19th 2016, Officers stopped Morris Tallie for a traffic violation. Tallie had a passenger with him, Christopher Kirkwood. As officers were talking with them they were notified that each man had an arrest warrant for burglary. After the arrests, a search of the vehicle uncovered items that were reported stolen earlier in the week. Officers took the men to the police department and an investigator was called to interview them. After the interviews it was determined that the two had stolen items from Poplar Heights, Church Street and Murray Street within the city of Oxford. The suspects took investigators to a house on Campground Road where more stolen property was recovered. Almost all of the property has been recovered, the men have been charged and bond was set at $10,000 for Tallie and $20,000 for Kirkwood.

On Friday November 25, 2016 officers responded to Faulkner Flats for suspicious people possibly trying to open car doors. When officers arrived they began walking the complex and made contact with two juveniles. When the officers approached, the juveniles ran on foot. A short foot chase ensued and both were caught. Once in custody stolen items from six auto burglaries were found in their possession. The property was returned to the owners and the juveniles were charged and released to their guardians.
