The Ridgeland Police Department issued the following statement.
Monday, 3/16, at approximately 7am, Ridgeland PD Dispatch received a 911 report of Armed Carjacking in the parking lot of Northpark Mall. Information was quickly obtained from the victim over the phone and by officers promptly arriving at the scene.
The vehicle description was quickly relayed to other officers and the stolen vehicle was spotted on County Line Road and it was stopped near Target by Ridgeland officers. Two juvenile suspects were apprehended; Johnny Spells, Jr, age 15 and Marcterrion Dear, age 17, both of Jackson, will be charged as adults with Armed Carjacking and Conspiracy. Both are held on $500,000.00 bonds. A firearm and ski mask were found in the carjacked vehicle at the time of apprehension.
Further investigation revealed that Spells and Dear arrived at the scene of the crime in a vehicle that was taken at gunpoint in Jackson earlier that same morning. Four other suspects were developed by Ridgeland detectives and later arrested by the US Marshals Fugitive Task Force while working in Jackson. Carlanthony Sanchez, age 15; Jordan Bradley, age 16; Demonta Everett, age 16; and Demarcus Smith, age 15; all of Jackson, have been charged with Armed Carjacking and Conspiracy in connection with the Ridgeland crime. No bond has been set as of yet on these defendants. The vehicle taken in the Jackson Armed Carjacking was also located and processed by Ridgeland detectives.

6 young lives getting off on the wrong foot.
I wonder how many of them had no daddy at home?
Marcterrion ?
This is what happens when there’s no toilet paper in the home.
7am carjacking? This is what happens when schools are closed.
But did they use hand sanitizer and wipe down the steering wheel with disinfectant wipes? If not, those are additional felonies.
Just as we're being assured all the pig-lipstick at that Mall and the Movie Theater and increased security are going to revitalize the venue.
This is what happens when racists rule the land for 300 years and an entire prison industry is created around locking up black men and leaving they children to be raised by the streets
In situations like this there is probably one "mastermind" and the rest are just followers submitting to peer pressure. There is no possibility of success or profit, just a chance to gain badass street cred. No other authority in their lives. No daddy to kick their ass. Sad.
I am less concerned about the six young lives and more concerned about the victims. Imagine being carjacked by a crew of young thugs, armed no less. How will the victims involved get in their cars and go to work, store, anywhere without being in terror? The thugs will get 3 hots & a cot (the ones who aren't turned loose) and laugh about their hijinks. The victims will receive no restitution for damage to anything - including their minds & hearts.
9:44; Thats a bunch of "CRAP". Those thugs know the difference between right & wrong. Racists has nothing to do with it. They just wanted FREE thing they don't have to pay for!!!!
Good point 9:44. The only way to stop crime is to make sure criminals stay on the streets.
Attn 9:44 I did not see anywhere in this report that the arrestees are black. That is your racist assumption.
The pictures are a dead giveaway.
"You sounded much taller on radio"
9:44 Your heart needs to be cut out. But uncertain if a clean transplant could survive in that place.
None of them look too worried.
I can't wait until Uncle Joe gets elected so he can take away all the guns. But first, I'm going to suggest that he outlaw white tank tops while he's at it as there seems to be an even stronger correlation between those and crime than there is with "assault rifles".
10:54, interesting comment. Are you maybe using a B&W low resolution monitor, didn't put on your glasses, or are maybe physically (as opposed to mentally/intellectually) color blind? The arrested persons are all obviously of African descent, whether African-American or not.
12:54, just the white tank tops (a/k/a "wife beaters")? What about the white t-shirt, the grey t-shirt, and the grey hoodie?
I've heard a lot of denial and excuses in the past 40 years for this thug-urchin behavioral bent, but, blaming it on all their daddies being incarcerated (9:44) takes the damned Chitlin'.
But, whatever it takes to convince yourself that it ain't you-all fault.
As a former teacher, this is what's sitting in the classrooms when school IS open! Imagine that, 15 and 16 and you have the mindset to point a gun in the face of someone to take their vehicle. This is what's sitting in our classrooms and you think they'll listen to a teacher? Administrator? If parents refuse or can't control their cretins, Oakley and some other options are in order or death is going to meet up with them. They're going to shove a gun in the wrong face and it'll be all over for them.
remember the doctor who was also a competition shooter who got carjacked 3 years ago and proceeded to ice one of the carjackers????
after that incident carjackings dropped like a rock. but unfortunately , in the light speed of the internet, that's all ancient history now, and no-one, not even the criminals , remember it.
i hoping the next time this happens the victim will be armed and turn out the lights on the carjacker. practicing armed self defense is the only thing that gets the attention of thugs.

If they’re minors, why can’t the parents be made liable? Commit a felony then daddy and/or mommy gets thrown into the clink. That’ll teach these sociopaths real quick, and in turn their parents will kick the living sh*t of them once released.
Either that or the parents should automatically forfeit custody to the state.
picture this. a thug attempts a carjacking. the citizen is armed and ices the carjacker thug. no matter how clear cut it is that the citizen acted in self defense, there will always be people out there screaming ''murder'', for no reason other than the fact that the citizen defended himself with a gun. remember the business owner down on mcdowell road about 2 or 3 years ago who confronted the thug who was trying to break into his car?
it was on video tape. a clear case of self defense. but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.........D A robert smith had to have his indictment. of course he folded like a deck chair when trial rolled around. but look at what he put that business owner through. all because he had the thugs momma down there crying about her dead thug son.
@3:34
That’s kind of iffy. First it wasn’t his car, it was an employee’s. Second, he went for deadly force due to auto burglary not an extension of Castle Doctrine. Third, you’re absolutely correct.
Costo & Highland Colony are next. Where are you Mr Mayer? Appreciate the police work of course but where is your protection of your citizens BEFORE it has to react to criminal interdiction. This will be you legacy not your name on your new city hall or that bridge (sic).
@3:06 PM - ParentS (with an S), seriously? Would that be mom and auntie, or mom and granny?
Industries fault, made cars to hard to steal.
