The Simpson County Sheriff’s Office in Mississippi is urging residents in the Braxton, Harrisville and Old Pearl areas to “keep their house and vehicle doors locked” after a local pastor was fatally shot and carjacked while trying to be a good Samaritan as his suspected killer remains on the run.
Pastor Anthony Watts, 61, was shot dead Monday night after he pulled over to help a man with a wrecked motorcycle on Interstate 55 around 7 p.m., police told CBS News.
Investigators suspect the person who shot the pastor multiple times before taking off with his red 2011 Dodge Ram is 22-year-old Dylan Thomas Arrington, who was among four inmates who escaped from the Raymond Detention Center on April 23, according to the Hinds County Sheriff’s Office.
