Rantoul Murder Suspect Behind Bars

January 13, 2009

Police say 27 year old Juvon Mays shot and killed a father of five in Rantoul, just days before Christmas. Nashville police caught up with him during a traffic stop for an expired license plate.

Police say it was a combination of dumb luck and diligent police work.

Nashville police pulled over a car for an expired sticker. Juvon Mays happened to be sitting in the backseat.

Mays gave police a false name, but hte person driving that car was Mays' brother who inadvertently told police his brother's real name.

That's when Nashville police ran Juvon Mays through a database, they found his murder warrant.

Rantoul police say they're lucky Tennessee authorities payed close attention to the two men.

"It's a huge relief for the family, probably one of the best phone calls I've gotten to make to let the family know we've got him in custody. It's a huge relief for them, they're ecstatic," said Sgt Marc Beach.

Rantoul police made the drive down to Nashville, and they're already questioned him about his role in the December murder.
