On 1/28/20, officers of the Johnson City Police Department issued a warrant for the arrest of Jonathon W. Maroney (130 Alexander Ferry Ln., Greeneville, TN, 40 years old) charging him with carjacking.
At approximately 10:00 p.m. on 1/27/20, officers responded to McDonald’s (1710 W. Market St.) in reference to a vehicle theft that had just occurred. Upon arrival, officers spoke with the victim and ultimately discerned that Mr. Maroney had taken the vehicle from the victim at knife point. The vehicle was abandoned in Greene County, and Mr. Maroney was eventually taken into custody by the Greeneville Police Department for public intoxication at a location not far from where the vehicle was abandoned.
Greeneville Police transported Mr. Maroney to the Greene County Detention Center where he is being held pending service of the warrant for his arrest. Once the warrant is served, Mr. Maroney will be transported to the Washington County Detention Center, where he will be held on a $25,000 bond. Arraignment is set for 1:30 p.m. on 1/29/20 in Washington County General Sessions Court.
