January 8, 2019 By Richard C. Gilbert

The circumstances are again, bizarre. According to County Chief Deputy Todd Jones, the suspect’s vehicle became stuck in a driveway near Hiddenite. The driveway just happened to be that of County Deputy Roger Moose who was off duty at the time. Moose offered assistance to the suspect and identified himself as an officer. Joines became belligerent and a scuffle ensued between Joines and Deputy Moose. A citizen who lives nearby came to the rescue of Moose, that citizen was the son of Deputy Moose. Joines assaulted him as well.

Shannon Renee Crabtree

A passenger in the vehicle identified as Shannon Renee Crabtree, age 36 of Taylorsville was charged with possession of a stolen vehicle. Both suspects were confined in the Alexander County Detention Center with the bond for Joines set for $15,000 and $10,000 for Crabtree. Both are scheduled for court appearances on January 14th.
