On September 9th at approximately 12:40 pm, ACCPD responded to a call from a resident in the 100 block of Biscayne Drive who witnessed two male suspects running down Cavalier Road, one carrying a rifle. As our Communications Officers continued to speak with the witness to obtain suspect descriptions, ACCPD officers arrived and began to search the area. At approximately the same time, another resident in the 100 block of Biscayne Drive called to report that his home was burglarized and a firearm was missing. Information from witnesses indicated that the male suspects were last seen at a residence at 330 Cavalier Road. ACCPD obtained a search warrant for the residence and recovered stolen property. Two suspects in the residence were detained. After searching the residence, Demitroi Jordan (19, Athens) was charged with two counts of Burglary, two counts of Contributing to Delinquency of a Minor, and Theft by Receiving Stolen Property. The other suspect in the incident, a 16-year-old juvenile, was released to a parent. In order to keep our community safe, ACCPD reminds residents – If You See Something, Say Something. We are grateful to the callers and residents who assisted in the apprehension of these suspects.
