Crime briefs: Shots fired in Covington
Placeholder Image
A Covington man was arrested the evening of Thanksgiving after officers were called to a home on Bent Pine Court regarding shots fired. When the officers arrived, they spoke with a woman who gave them a description of the vehicle and the shooter, later identified as Richard Lamont Jefferson. An officer located the vehicle and was able to follow, and reportedly watched Jefferson pull into a driveway on Lee Street, get out of the car with a gun in his left hand and walk into a house.
