The Mayfield Police Department says officers were dispatched to a fight call on Clayshire Court. When officers arrived, no one was found outside fighting, however a resident told officers that people had entered his home.
The homeowner allowed officers to enter his home where 27-year-old Joeontra Starks of Mayfield was found. Starks was known to have absconded from a halfway house, and reportedly pretended to be asleep when officers made contact.
Starks was placed under arrest on two active warrants. One warrant was out of McCracken County for promoting contraband. The other was a warrant from the Kentucky Parole Board for absconding parole supervision, failure to complete halfway house program, and use of controlled substance.
During his arrest, officers reportedly found suspected methamphetamine on Starks. Starks was additionally charged with possession of methamphetamine, 3rd or more offense.
Starks was lodged in the Graves County Jail.
