The Enfield and Weldon police departments reported the following:

Enfield arrests

Chief Tyree Davis reported Detective Graham Page Thursday arrested Jeryl Jones, 47, of Enfield, on outstanding warrants.

The investigation started when the victim filed a complaint Jones failed to do the agreed upon work on their vehicle.

Page determined the victim’s vehicle and $1,600 were left with Jones for more than five months so he could do the work.

Page located the victim’s vehicle in the backyard of another person’s residence and only half the work was performed. The detective learned no work was performed since September.

Page obtained warrants on Jones for two counts of obtaining property under false pretense.  

He received a $2,500 bond.

Davis reported Page and Corporal Shatel Coates Thursday responded to a residence on North Dennis Street for a medical assistance call.  

Officers observed Melody Barnes, 39, on the front porch of the residence.

The homeowner had an active domestic violence protective order against Barnes.

On January 11 Page responded to the same residence, where Barnes was on the front porch causing a disturbance. The same order against her was active.

Officers learned there was no medical emergency, and Page again placed Barnes under arrest for violation of the order.

She was transported to the magistrate’s office and was ordered to jail without opportunity for bond.

 

Weldon arrest

Lieutenant Chris Davis reported Ivet Figueroa was arrested Thursday for the theft of a $105 comforter from Grant Park Laundry on December 10.

Officer N. Coles identified the 54-year-old Weldon woman as the alleged suspect and charged her with misdemeanor larceny.

She was taken before a magistrate and received a $500 secured bond with a February 13 court date.

Sergeant D. Newsome and Deputy K. Walsh of the Halifax County Sheriff's Office assisted.
