Two burglary suspects are in custody and a third suspect is being sought by Jones County Sheriff’s Department investigators.

On March 22, 2022, Jones County Sheriff’s Department deputies responded to a residence on Rainey Road for a reported burglary. The victim reported a Conex storage unit was broken into with tools and a four wheeler stolen. Timmie “TJ” Davis, age 31 of Sumrall, and Brandon Fitzgerald, age 29 of Seminary, were arrested later that day by Covington County Sheriff’s Department deputies.

JCSD investigators are seeking Brett Sanford as a third suspect in the burglary.

“We greatly appreciate the efforts of the Covington County Sheriff’s Department in locating and taking the two burglary suspects into custody,” notes Jones County Sheriff Joe Berlin. “The third suspect is known to us now and if he has any sense at all he will turn himself in to us promptly.”

Davis and Fitzgerald are incarcerated at the Jones County Adult Detention Facility pending their initial appearance in Jones County Justice Court. All of the stolen items were recovered by the Covington County Sheriff’s Department.
