ADAMS COUNTY, Miss. (WJTV) – Adams County Sheriff Travis Patten said the three teenagers who escaped from the Henley-Young-Patton Youth Detention Center are in custody.

The sheriff said Natchez police received a tip just after 7:30 a.m. on Friday, January 12 that the suspects’ vehicle was on Brenham Avenue. He said the teens were in an abandoned home, which was surrounded by law enforcement.

Patten said the suspects, 16-year-old Robert Smith, 17-year-old Tayshon Holmes, and 15-year-old Jashon Jones, ran away and tried to enter a home on Gayosa Avenue. The homeowner fired shots at the teens. Two teens fled and were captured by authorities, and one teen hid under a car and was arrested by police.

According to Patten, the teens face additional charges. Several law enforcement agencies from Mississippi and Louisiana assisted with the arrests.

The trio appeared in court in Adams County on Friday. Their bonds were set at $1,500,000 each for armed carjacking and $1,500,000 each for attempted murder.

Hinds County Sheriff Tyree Jones said Smith, Holmes, and Jones escaped from the facility following a large disturbance around 11:30 p.m. on Sunday, January 7.

The teens are accused of a carjacking in Jackson on Monday, January 8. They allegedly carjacked a woman in Adams County later in the afternoon. Patten said the woman was shot in the back and neck. The victim was taken to Merit Health, and her condition is unknown at this time.

During the search for the escapees on Wednesday, January 10, Patten said Tayshon Holmes’ father, 47-year-old Shonte Holmes, was arrested on unrelated outstanding bench warrants. His uncle, 47-year-old Shonkeith Holmes, was also arrested on unrelated bench warrants.

Patten said neither of the individuals are believed to be helping the escapees at this time.

The trio escaped from the Henley-Young-Patton Youth Detention Center in June 2023, but they were later captured.
