Multiple incidents happened over the weekend involving Anthony McCauley, a 26-year-old from Shepherdsville, Kentucky.
A 911 call was placed Friday night from Murphy’s Gas Station about someone brandishing a handgun. Carmi Police detained the suspect who was transported to the White County Jail. Police searched McCauley and found a Controlled Substance. Friday night, McCauley was charged with Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon and Possession of a Controlled Substance. It was also discovered that McCauley had a Massachusetts warrant for Criminal Damage to Property.
On Saturday morning, the Carmi Police Department received a phone call from Walmart stating they had an individual in the store Friday, and upon looking at video surveillance, the person stole items from Walmart as well as pulling out a loaded handgun, and presented that gun to an employee. Officers arrived at Walmart watched the footage and confirmed that the same guy was McCauley before they arrested him at Murphy’s.
Police added additional charges to McCauley, Retail Theft, and Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon.
