Crime Spree Ends With Arrest In Louisiana

May 17, 2013

A suspect has been named in an April 30 robbery of an individual in Atmore. After the incident a property owner reported was doing construction work at his rental property on Fourth Avenue when he was robbed of his wallet and phone at gunpoint.

Atmore Police said three individuals traveled together from Atlanta to Louisiana, committing a string of robberies a long the way — including the Atmore robbery. They were finally apprehended by the St. Tammany Parish (LA) Sheriff’s Office.

The victim in Atmore was presented a photo lineup and positively identified 28-year old Kristopher Cameron Jones of Slidell, LA. Atmore Police expect a robbery first degree warrant to be issued for Jones. There’s not word on when he might be extradited back to Alabama to face the charge.

The April 30 robbery in Atmore prompted a manhunt that essentially shut down an area around Horner Street for several hours.
