Oxford Crime Report: Friday – Sunday, March 18 – 20

Ronald Mongeon – Burglary, Motor Vehicle Theft

On Thursday, March 17, Oxford police investigators charged Ronald Mongeon, Jr. (41 of Somerville, Tennessee) with one count of Residential Burglary and one count of Motor Vehicle Theft. The Memphis police officers stopped him after a warrant was issued on him for burglary. Oxford police then advised the Memphis police that he is a suspect in taking a vehicle from the Square a few days earlier. The Memphis police officers then checked where Mongeon was staying and found the stolen vehicle parked behind his house, in process of being broken down to be sold. They recovered the vehicle and brought Mongeon back to Oxford. Mongeon’s bond was revoked because he was out on a previous felony bond.

She is in a relationship with Mongeon, and was involved in the burglary and taking of the vehicle from the Square.
