Maxey was arrested following on Sunday around at 4 p.m. in the 400 block of Magnolia Road following a call from someone in the community. He was charged with grand larceny and booked into the Jones County Adult Detention Center.
Hodge said Houston turned himself into the sheriff’s department on Monday. He is charged with malicious mischief, and was booked into the jail.
Deputies charged an Ellisville man with residential burglary Wednesday. Jones County Sheriff Alex Hodge identified the man as Leon Trevino, 26, of the 2000 block of Highway 29 North.
