911 Call Leads To Lowndes Arrest

LOWNDES COUNTY, Miss. (WCBI) – A man calls 911 after getting into an argument, then he’s arrested for an unrelated crime.

Lowndes County investigators say Lymon Lucas Scarbrough, 20, stole a front end loader and abandoned it after getting stuck.

The Baldwin Sand and Gravel equipment was parked at a gravel pit on Harrison Road on Sunday evening, when it was taken.

Later that day, Scarborough called law enforcement about a disturbance with a person unrelated to the first incident.

Deputies are not saying how they figured out the Lowndes County was possibly connected to the stolen front end loader.

Scarborough remains in jail.
