A Thomaston man has been charged in Perry County District Court after authorities say he broke into a woman’s vehicle, damaged two police cars, and wrecked her apartment during a domestic disturbance in Marion earlier this month.
De’Marquees Travieon Tucker, 25, of Hillcrest Drive in Thomaston, is charged with:
- One count of breaking and entering a vehicle
- Three counts of second-degree criminal mischief
- Resisting arrest
- Third-degree domestic violence–menacing
- Third-degree domestic violence with criminal mischief as the underlying offense
The case was filed Jan. 13 and is assigned to District Judge Robert D. Bryant. Bond was set at $4,000.
According to a complaint filed in district court, the incident happened on Jan. 6. Tucker is accused of entering a 2021 Honda HR-V without the owner’s consent and damaging its interior.
He is also accused of damaging interior lights, door panels, and other equipment on two City of Marion patrol cars, including cameras and lighting equipment, causing more than $500 but less than $2,500 in damage in each case.
The complaint alleges that Tucker became aggressive toward a woman he was with at an apartment in Marion. He refused to leave when told, made threats, used vulgar language, and caused “extensive property damage” that placed her in fear of imminent serious physical injury.
In the domestic-violence-related criminal mischief charge, Tucker is accused of:
- Breaking three televisions
- Pouring various liquids and other substances throughout the apartment, including on furniture and personal belongings
Tucker is also charged with resisting arrest, with the complaint alleging that he intentionally tried to prevent an officer from carrying out a lawful arrest.
Tucker is presumed innocent unless and until he is proven guilty in a court of law.
