Six people have been arrested for breaking into a residence on Swicegood Street near Cooleemee last week.
Two of those five had been evicted from another residence earlier in that same day.
Davie Sheriff J.D. Hartman said officers responded to a breaking and entering in progress call at 5:47 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 4. The complainant was the owner of both residences, and told deputies that two women had been evicted from a Calvin Lane residence earlier that day, and had gone to live at the Swicegood St. residence without permission.
Pamela Robbins Burris, 47, and Eva Evon Farris, 53, were leaving the Swicegood Street house when deputies arrived. They were arrested for breaking and entering.
Deputies located a pipe used to smoke methamphetamine in Farris’ purse. They also learned that more suspects had ran into nearby woods.
A K-9 unit located one of the other suspects, and a drone was used to help find the other two, Hartman said. They were identified as Michael Ray Jones, 34, Justice William Childress, 28, and Octavian Davon Steele, 20.
While on the scene, neighbors told deputies that Michael Zachary Spaugh Jr., 33, had broken into the same Swicegood Street home earlier that same day.
