The Roanoke Rapids Police Department reported the following, according to Chief Chuck Hasty:

Friday March 18, 2016

At approximately 5:30 p.m., Officer Alex Green received information on the location of Brandon Woodard, 24, of Roanoke Rapids, who had an outstanding order for arrest.

Green located Woodard on a traffic stop at Premier Boulevard.

During the search incident to arrest, Woodard was found in the possession of drug paraphernalia.

Woodard who received a $2,500 bond and April 4 court date, was arrested for the outstanding paper and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Officer Jeffrey Mason assisted.

At approximately midnight, Officer Jamie Hardy was following up on a suspicious activity in the 500 block of Hamilton Street.

Hardy encountered Joshua Kyle Bradley, 22, and Michael Ryan Price, 21, both of Roanoke Rapids.

He noticed Price throw something to the ground.

During the investigation Hardy found Xanax and Clonazepam pills.

Hardy cited both Price and Bradley, who were released until their May 20 court dates, with possession of schedule IV.

At approximately 12:30 p.m., Master Officer Adam Salmon and Officer Natara Velazquez responded to a break-in in progress call in what is traditionally called the no-hundred block of Monroe Street.

The victim told officers that they were watching TV when they heard some noise elsewhere in the residence.

When the victim went to investigate he saw a person, later identified as William Thomas Kidd, 30, of Roanoke Rapids, in the kitchen going through drawers.

Kidd fled when the victim started to call police.

Officer Dale Strickland located Kidd in the no-hundred block of Franklin Street and arrested him for the breaking and entering.

Kidd was charged with breaking and entering, larceny and possession of stolen goods.

Kidd also had several other outstanding warrants for arrest which were served — two counts of financial card theft; two counts of obtaining property by false pretense and larceny.

These charges stem from an investigation last November when Investigator Chris Babb obtained warrants on Kidd after the victim reported their bank card was stolen and used in several places.

Kidd received a $15,000 bond and May 18 court date.

Lieutenant Jeff Baggett and Sergeant Mike Moseley assisted.

Sunday March 20, 2016

At approximately 10:45 a.m., Strickland responded to a larceny call at Walmart.

Loss prevention reported Johnnie Nathaniel Rowland, 18, took items from the store and used a juvenile to assist in the larceny.

Strickland arrested and charged Rowland with larceny, possession of stolen goods and contributing to the delinquency of a minor. He received a $1,000 bond and April 15 court date.

At approximately 3:30 p.m., Green responded to a larceny call at Walmart.

Loss prevention reported Larry Zollicoffer, 58, of Gaston, took items twice and placed them in his vehicle.

Green arrested and charged Zollicoffer with two counts of larceny and two counts possession of stolen goods.

He received a $600 bond and April 20 court date.

At approximately 4:15 p.m., Moseley and Strickland located Michael Christopher Lewis, 27, of Roanoke Rapids, on outstanding warrants for three counts of breaking and entering a motor vehicle; three counts of larceny from a motor vehicle; three counts possession of stolen goods; two counts damage to property and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.

The charges stem from reports last December in which Investigator J.K. Davis developed Lewis as a suspect.

Lewis received a $15,000 bond and April 20 court date.
