PRENTISS COUNTY, Miss. (WCBI) – A cross-county investigation nets a couple of burglary arrest, plaguing parts of the county.

William Chaffin, 46, of Guntown was arrested in Prentiss County on a drug charge Monday.

Chaffin faces a Possession of Controlled Substance, Meth, charge with a bond of $5,000.
