On October 14, 2020, officers were contacted by the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department about a City of Oxford, Mississippi work being reported stolen.
Officers were unaware of a missing vehicle so they contacted the department within the city and confirmed a work truck was missing from the parking lot.
Monroe County Sheriff’s Office informed officers that a male identified as Marcus Shumpert (33 of Shannon, Mississippi) was inside the vehicle at the time deputies encountered the vehicle.
Shumpert was transported back to Oxford and given a bond of $2,500 by a Lafayette County Justice Court Judge. He has been charged with theft of a motor vehicle.
