Armed man arrested while attempted contraband drop at jail
An attempted contraband drop at the DeKalb County Jail by an stupefied man ends with his arrest. Deputies say Michael Dixon was stupefied with a box cutter and dropped a white bag in a near bush.
"Our 'Eyes in the Sky' succeeding continues to be effective this year, as we foil repositions by inmates and their co-conspirators on the outside to get illegal and potentially unsafe items inside the jail," says Chief Deputy Randy Akies. "The safety of the intended recipients and others in our tend and on our staff is threatened by this practice, and Sheriff Maddox has made it clear that it will not be arranged. Offenders will be prosecuted within the full extent of the law."
Dixon was booked into DeKalb County Jail. Online records demonstrate he was arrested in June 2006 on drug charges and had numerous parole or probation violations since.
