Oxford Crime Report: Tuesday, May 3

Marcus Hilliard – Burglary

On May 3, Oxford police investigators charged Marcus Hilliard (34 of Oxford) with two counts of residential burglary (97-17-23).

On April 1, 2016, officers responded to a report of an intruder of a residence in Falls Grove. Upon arrival, the victim told the officers that a black male followed her home in a white car and then forced his way into the house. Once the male left, the victim said her cell phone was gone. The suspect called his own cell phone from the victim’s cell phone after stealing it. The victim then found the number through her phone records, and the number came back to Hilliard’s cell phone. The victim also chose Hilliard from a photo lineup.

On April 23, 2016, the officers responded to a report of an intruder of a residence at North 14th Street. Upon arrival, the victim told the officers that she left her house door unlocked for her boyfriend to return home. The suspect walked right into the victim’s house to lay in her bed and kiss her. When the victim opened her eyes, she realized the guy in her bed was the person who cut her lawn and not her boyfriend. After he left the house, witnesses saw the suspect leave in a white car. The victim later picked Marcus Hilliard from the photo lineup.

His bond is now set at $5,000.
