On November 12, 2024, an officer with the Oxford Police Department<\/strong> took a walk-in report regarding money being taken from a vulnerable adult out of her bank account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon further investigation, it was revealed that Demarius Dontae Carothers<\/strong>, 35 of Oxford, Mississippi<\/strong>, was the suspect in this report. The suspect was able to obtain this information due to a close connection with the reporting party.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
