Henderson was charged with burglary of an occupied dwelling, kidnapping, petit larceny, disorderly conduct-failure to comply.

"If he does get a bond reduction we would like a restraining order from the apartments (he allegedly burglarized)," said Detective Lee Martin.

The judge granted his request and reduced his bond to $10,000 and told him to stay away from the apartments.

Kevin Montgomery, 812 W. Washington, Greenwood, was bound over to the grand jury for embezzlement.

Stephen Utz, 108 Northwells, Kosciusko, was bound over to the grand jury for prescription forgery.

Raymond Flowers, Felisha Hunt and Latonya Cole, all of 170 Greenbriar, Courtland, were transferred to the grand jury for grand larceny.

Shoplifting

Contempt

Other
Latoya Fondren, 20 Earnestine Flowers, Sardis, had a simple assault charge dismissed after the judge heard testimonies.

Affiant Iris White spoke on behalf of her juvenile daughter and said that Fondren hit her daughter at school after a "winter ball."

Both defendant and affiant told the judge that the school had disciplined them.

No one else witnessed the incident.

"The school has already handled this and I am going to dismiss it," the judge said.
