ACSO Special Operations agents discover drugs, guns, cash in bust; two charged

NATCHEZ — Adams County Sheriff’s Office on Friday morning arrested two men — one with a litany of previous charges — during a drug bust at Holiday Apartments.

In the early hours of Friday morning, agents from the ACSO Special Operations Unit executed a search warrant at Holiday Apartments, 601 Old Washington Road, Apartment 24B.

Deputies seized approximately 20 ounces of marijuana, packaging material, scales, two bottles of suspected Promethazine, two loaded Glock pistols with extended magazines, and $2,856 in cash.

Jehron Davis, 25, was arrested and charged with possession of schedule 1 marijuana with intent to deliver with a firearms enhancement and a church zone enhancement. Bibleway Pentecostal Church is less than 1,500 from the apartment. Davis is also charged with being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.

Davis was convicted in Louisiana on Jan. 19, 2022, for attempted assault by drive-by shooting. In addition, Davis is on probation in Mississippi for aggravated assault and on probation in Louisiana for felon in possession of a firearm.

Also, Davis has active warrants for his arrest in Arlington, Texas, for controlled substance violations and being a felon in possession of a firearm.

Davis was arrested on May 6, 2020, for possession of a controlled substance and on May 15, 2019, for two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

On Nov. 2, 2018, Davis was arrested for possession of a stolen weapon, and on April 3, 2018, for shooting into a dwelling.

Adams County Sheriff Travis Patten said the dispositions of Davis’s arrests are unknown.

“Make no mistake. Davis has a long history of being involved with guns and violence in three states,” Patten said.

Also arrested at the Friday morning drug bust was Jalandon Green, 23, and charged with felon in possession of a firearm. Green is currently on probation in Louisiana for being convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm and unauthorized entry into a residence on Sept. 9, 2022, in Concordia Parish, Louisiana, District Court.

Davis’s bond has been set at $250,000, and the states of Texas and Louisiana have also placed holds on him.

Green’s bond has been set at $150,000, and Louisiana has placed a hold on him.

Holds mean that if released, each would be transported to those other states to face charges awaiting them.
