Pair Arrested; Loaded Handgun and Fraudulent EDD Mail Recovered
On April 18 just after midnight, officers responded to a business on the 4600 block of San Fernando Road regarding a gunshot fired at the location.
Upon arrival, officers were pointed in the direction of individuals walking away from the location. The officers detained the individuals, including 26-year-old Trumeshia Perry of Jefferson, Georgia, and 23-year-old Terry Brown Jr. of Jefferson, Georgia. Upon being detained, Perry admitted to having a gun in her waistband. The handgun was recovered from Perry and was found to be loaded and unregistered.
Although Perry claimed ownership of the gun, surveillance footage revealed that Brown Jr. was seen brandishing the firearm inside of the business, but did not discharge the weapon as was originally reported. A search of the suspect’s vehicle was conducted where officers located Employment Development Dept. (EDD) mail belonging to more than six individuals. A subsequent search of Brown’s person revealed more evidence of EDD fraud and over $3,000 cash.
Perry was arrested for carrying a loaded firearm in public. Brown was arrested for exhibiting a firearm, carrying a loaded firearm in public and identity theft.
