OXFORD – An off-duty Oxford policeman captured a vandal Thursday, but not before the man had destroyed almost two dozen mailboxes.
Police officials say the officer heard a loud noise and saw William T. Jones, 21, of Brentwood, Tennessee, destroying the mailboxes. The officer and Jones got in a short foot pursuit and Jones was taken into custody without incident.
Jones is accused of destroying 20 mailboxes in the Magnolia Grove and Breckenridge subdivisions. The total value of the damages was more than $1,000. Jones bond was set at $5,000.
