An Oxford man and woman were arrested on Monday, June 12 for burglary. Andrew Goodwin, 19, and Alexis Wright, 21, reportedly went into Marquis Towing on May 25, and stole money out of the safe. The Marquis owner signed charges against the pair and added that Goodwin had a key to access the building. Goodwin and Wright were arrested during a traffic stop on June 12 and taken to the Lafayette County Detention Center where Wright was given a bond of $2,500. Goodwin’s bond was revoked because he was out on a previous felony bond.

Back in January, Goodwin and Wright were previously arrested after investigators claimed they stole a credit a card from Marquis Towing and spent more than $1,000 at locations throughout Lafayette County and Oxford. They were arrested for credit card fraud.
