Grovetown police have released the names of three suspects stopped at a Jiffy Lube Monday as part of Richmond County’s investigation into the murder of 8-year-old Arbrie Anthony.

The three individuals have not been charged with murder as of the time of the press release.

According to a news release from Grovetown Public Safety Chief Jamey Kitchens, the Grovetown Police Department assisted the U.S. Marshal Service and the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office with a traffic stop around 2:45 p.m. Monday at the Jiffy Lube, 5035 Wrightsboro Road, Grovetown. The stop was in reference to an on-going murder investigation in Richmond County.

A vehicle search revealed multiple firearms and several dozen financial transaction cards belonging to multiple individuals, none of whom were passengers in the vehicle, the release said. Large amounts of cash, narcotics and drug paraphernalia were found as well.

As a result of the stop, investigators with the Grovetown Police Department secured arrest warrants Tuesday for Antoine Rodrigues Redfield, 21, for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon; Devonte Juanye McNeil, 25, for financial transaction card theft; and Henri Ramone Beach, 20, for financial transaction card theft.

The release said additional charges related to the firearms and narcotics are forthcoming. Those are the only charges yielded from the traffic stop.

Any questions regarding the on-going murder investigation should be directed to the Richmond County Sheriff’s Office. Anyone with information regarding the investigation is encouraged to contact the Criminal Investigation Division at (706) 821-1020.
