Guns From Burglaries Recovered; One Suspect To Face Additional Charges, Another Warrant Issued

March 21, 2009

The recovery of guns from recent burglaries in the area will have one of three suspects facing additional charges, and a warrant for a fourth suspect has been issued.

Escambia County Deputy Ty Brewton and other officers have recovered nine firearms from a recent string of burglaries, according to Lt. Tony Jordan. The firearm recovery has solved additional burglaries, Jordan said. Some of those firearms have already been returned to their rightful owners.

Bell (pictured left) remains in the Escambia County Jail on multiple counts including theft, burglary, trespassing, criminal mischief and narcotics charges. He is being held on a $104,000 bond.

He was arrested Monday in connection with a string of about 25 burglaries, many of which were in the Molino and Cantonment areas.

Jermaine Lamar Patterson, 17, of Cantonment is still in the the Escambia County Jail, being held on $70,000 bond. He faces multiple charges, including burglary, theft and criminal mischief.

Sara Louise Temoney, 22, of Pensacola was granted pre-trial release by the court Tuesday. She was charged with criminal mischief, burglary, grand theft and knowingly giving false information to law enforcement.

Deputies say they have named a fourth suspect in connection with the burglaries, and a warrant has been issued for their arrests. They have not publicly released the suspect’s name.

As NorthEscambia.com first reported Tuesday morning, Bell, Patterson and Temoney were arrested Monday by deputies after an attempted burglary on Clymil Drive, just south of Williams Ditch Road in the Cottage Hill area. Deputies say at least two more people are expected to be arrested in connection with the burglaries. In all, the suspects are believed to be responsible for about 25 burglaries in the area.

“We recovered a lot of merchandise,” Lt. Tony Jordan of the Escambia Sheriff’s Department told NorthEscambia.com. Property recovered from an apartment complex on Olive Road in Pensacola included a long list of big screen TVs, jewelry, games systems, DVDs, computers and more.

The arrests came Monday after the Clymil Drive resident came home to find a vehicle backed to his home and called for help. Deputies located the vehicle and made their arrests, but not before the female suspect reported that she had been carjacked, Jordan said.

The persons arrested Monday are possibly linked to 25 similar burglaries across the area this year, according to the Sheriff’s Department. In the typical burglary, one suspect would knock on the front door of the home. If no one answered the door, the suspects would back their car up to the home and kick in the backdoor, Jordan said. Most of the burglaries took place in isolated areas, often at homes where trees or shrubbery block the view of the home from the road.

In an incident last week, a man returned to his home in the 4000 block of Chestnut Road in Molino to find one of the burglars inside his home.

    Thanks for following up on this story! It is nice to hear the continued developments of a story. We are relieved that these suspects were caught. I think they may have been responsible for two burglaries in our area. Same MO.
