CrimeStoppers recently discovered an unclaimed reward for information that led to the identification and arrest of Rodney Jones in reference to a 2017 Robbery Investigation. The U. S. Marshal’s Fugitive Task Force took Rodney Jones into custody on Wednesday, January 31, 2018 in Autauga County.

We normally pay rewards within 30 days of being notified from our Law Enforcement partners of an arrest, but sometimes information gets delayed and we aren’t notified until after court dates,” advised CrimeStoppers Director Tony Garrett.  We are urging tipsters to use our new app (P3tips).  The app allows CrimeStoppers to notify a tipster when a reward has been authorized for their information. The tipster remains anonymous through the app. 

If the tipster wish to claim the cash reward, please call 215-STOP between 9:00 – 3:00 am during the workweek. Due to numerous tips received, the tipster must have the code that was originally given that connects them to the tip.

On December 24, 2017 Rodney Jones allegedly committed an armed robbery of a convenience store located in the 2600 block of Zelda Road.  The offender stole an unspecified amount of U.S. currency and assorted cigarettes.

On Monday, February 5, 2018, a Montgomery jury convicted Lamario Lockley, an 18-year-old, for the September 2016 armed robbery and carjacking of a woman at a local restaurant's drive-thru.

Lockley and a second suspect walked up to the victim on the evening of Sept. 22, 2016, as she was ordering food at Popeye's on Ann Street. They then demanded at gunpoint that she get out of her vehicle. The suspects then fled in the stolen car, which was later found a few blocks away.

No details were available on the second suspect.
