Two Charged With Armed Robbery Of Century Man

November 2, 2016

Two people have been charged with the armed robbery of a Century man after taking his cash and prescription narcotics.

Aubrey Odom, age 20 of Century, was charged with aggravated battery using a deadly weapon and robbery with a weapon. Kerry Mae Nelson, 36, was charged with armed robbery with a weapon.

Deputies responded to a reported burglary in progress at the Oakwood Village Apartment at 9640 Shady Lane in Century. The victim told deputies that he heard a knock on his door, opened it and let Nelson inside because she used to live with him. The victim stated that Odom then entered the apartment with a knife and hit him in the head.

Odom and Nelson then fled the apartment in a Nissan Altima at a high rate of speed with prescription medication and $188 in cash.

Deputies located the Altima at home of Odom’s mother. Inside the vehicle, they reported finding the knife, cash and a prescription bottle belonging to the victim.

Odom is being held without bond due to a violation of probation charge. Nelson is being held on a $200,000 bond.

    SHAME ON BOTH OF THEM!!!

    They need to run into someone their own age or a little older,

    and see what happens to them. How would they like that???

    Jail will do nothing for them, unless they do some time.

    I am thankful for the work of law enforcement and citizens getting involved. That’s one reason they make the news in Century is because they got CAUGHT and Arrested!

    @k and @shay

    The zip codes and population of each in our coverage area:

    Century 6,015
    Cantonment 27,434
    Molino 32577 4,487
    McDavid/Walnut Hill 2,981

    Largest in square miles, by far, is McDavid, Walnut Hill.

    @shay: when you think about it being “Northescambia.com” – and Century is the largest community in north Escambia…

    yeah, just by numbers alone it would be in the news more often.
    kinda like all the accidents on Rally Road (that’s Hwy 97)

    seriously someone should just go get a rally car and have a passenger screaming out all the turns from the side seat – “Medium right!” “Small hill!” “Long straightaway!” “Medium left!”

    And then next morning we read about the guy who flips his car just north of Tung Oil road…

    Another story about Century in the news this week. Century has been in the news almost every day for the last week or so, Is it the lack of jobs, drugs are rampant or is there another plausible reason for the influx of crimes?
