Chris Paten – Armed Robbery
On Saturday, December 19, 2015, Oxford police officers arrested Chris Paten (27 of Oxford). An unknown citizen called the police, reporting that Paten was on Robinson Road. Paten’s arrest came as a result of a call on the Robinson Road last week. The victim said Paten and other men were shooting dice on Robinson Road when Paten got mad, pulled a gun and took his money. The victim signed charges on Paten, then Paten’s bond was set at $75,000.
Oxford police report that Paten was found with narcotics on him, so they called Metro Narcotics to assist. The police also recovered a stolen firearm that was taken from the Lafayette County, thus notifying the Sheriff’s Office.
Major Jeff McCutchen said, “At this time, we do not believe that Paten has any connection with the robberies at Regions Bank.”
Oxford police responded to the following incidents: three welfare concerns, three suspicious activities, two improper parking, two disturbances, a malicious mischief, an ambulance assist, a 911 hang up call, a civil matter, a code violation, a petit larceny and a harassing phone call.
