The USMS is offering up to $2,500 each for tips that lead to the capture of Deandre Perry, 25, and Tarcus Wilkes, 19.
“This is an opportunity for someone to not only do the right thing by helping get these dangerous individuals off the streets but also receive up to $2,500 or $5,000 for your information,” said U.S. Marshal Tyreece Miller.
On November 26, 2024, at approximately 3:55 p.m., Jackson Police Department (JPD) officers responded to reports of shots fired in the Wallace Road area.
