Shermartia Simmons, 30, and Gerardo Carrillo, 19, both of Roanoke Rapids, face charges of larceny and possession of stolen goods in the matter which occurred in the late evening hours of August 17 at White Chevrolet & Cadillac on Old Farm Road.
Roanoke Rapids police Chief Chuck Hasty said in a statement Investigator Gorton Williams, with assistance from Deputy Mike Almendarez of the Halifax County Sheriff’s Office, was served with the warrants Tuesday around 7:30 a.m. at his residence at Fox Court Run.
