Troy police have arrested one of two men they believe to be involved in the armed robbery of a Troy residence in July.
Jamarius Cachief Jones, 20, of Troy, was arrested on warrants for first-degree robbery and first-degree burglary, both Class A Felonies.
Jones is believed to be one of two men armed with handguns that entered a residence in the 200 block of John M. Long Drive in the early morning hours of July 13, 2018. Electronics and the victim’s wallet were taken from the residence.
Jermarius Cachief Jones was processed through the Troy City Jail and transported to the Pike County Jail where he was incarcerated on bonds totaling $125,000.00. A hold was placed on Jones for the Bullock County Sheriff’s Department. Jones has active warrants there for first-degree robbery and attempted murder. Jones was also allegedly involved in a burglary in Troy in September 2017, where he and two other men reportedly refused to come out of a residence when police responded to a burglary in progress at the location.
This case remains under investigation by the Troy Police Department. Anyone with information about this crime is asked to call the Troy Police Department at 334-566-0500 or the secret witness line at 334-566-5555.
