CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Clarksville police have been working to find two suspects in the murder of 22-year-old Antorius Gallion, who crashed his car on Warfield Blvd. last month.
Marques Lamarr “Cheez” Kelly and one of TBI’s Top 10 Most Wanted, Vincent Bryan “Rabbit” Merriweather, are both wanted on homicide charges. While following leads in the case, detectives ended up at a home on Bamburg Drive.
Police did not find the suspects, but while executing a search warrant they did find a man who is suspected of being an accessory to the crime after the fact.
Joe O’Neal, 19, was charged with accessory after the fact (homicide), unlawful carrying of a weapon, and theft. His bond was set at $1,010,000. Detectives believe he is a member of the Vice-Lord gang and was aware of Merriweather’s status as a fugitive. They said he communicated with him and arranged payments for family members, associated, and reimbursement to a co-conspirator so Merriweather could remain hidden.
Two other people inside the home at the time were also charged.
Jhanti Gold, 23, was charged with felony drug possession, simple possession, and drug paraphernalia. Amonti Moss, 21, was charged with felony drug possession, two counts of simple possession, and drug paraphernalia.
“As police continue to follow leads to locate and arrest the homicide suspects, there will be no hesitation to also charge anyone associated with assisting the fugitives in any manner to avoid arrest,” Clarksville police spokesman Jim Knoll said.
Another suspect in the case, 23-year-old Cedrick Davaughn Stacker was arrested November 21 on a charge of criminal homicide.
If the suspects are spotted, please call 911 immediately.
