MAXTON — Two Maxton teenagers have been charged with breaking into a vacant home on Fergus Road and then burning it down, according to sheriff’s Lt. Brian Duckworth.

Quinton O’Keith Oxendine, 16, of 178 Jefferson Road, is charged with two counts of burning an uninhabited structure and two counts of felony breaking and entering into the home at 61 Fergus Road, Duckworth said. He is out of jail after making a $7,000 secured bond.

Lucas Jones, 17, of 20 Royal Drive, is charged with breaking and entering, and is out on a $1,000 secured bond.

The home was broken into twice, on May 20 and May 21, and set on fire on May 21, Duckworth said. Firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze, but Oxendine returned to set the home on fire again on May 22, at which point the home was destroyed, according to Duckworth.

Duckworth said that more charges are pending.

Happy 236th
Thousands of people were dazzled by the fireworks display at the annual Lumberton Family Fourth celebration at the Lumberton High School football stadium on Tuesday. Many watched the display from parking lots and sidewalks around town and from their own front yards. Before the show, attendees were treated to a performance by the Carolina Breakers, and a stunt by the Army Rangers, who parachuted onto the football field.

I agree with you MadeInBladen. I don't have a problem with them giving money to the communities. Its easy to say what you would do when you're not in that position. Looks like we have a bunch of armchair quarterbacks around here.

Why get rid of the funds, What about the kids who want to play little league and can't afford it? I understand that the commissioners know that it is the taxpayers money and it is going back to the community.

Self imposed impotence, if that's what you want to call it. I call it dereliction of duty, and lying under oath, because they all took an oath to uphold the Constitution, and it's laws. And they have NOT even attempted to follow immigration laws, let along prosecute them when they have been broken. The President and the Attorney General are prime offenders. Votes are at the bottom of any bill that considers amnesty or cutting into line, by border jumpers. It is a slap in the face by those who have done it legally. It also rewards lawbreaking. Just carry out the laws we already have in place. And believe me...there are enough on the books to keep any red-tape bureaucrat rolling in the clover for a long time.

I'd love to believe that but I'm afraid it is too little too late. The discretionary fund show be done away with and their salaries and stipends lowered. They're rushing to pacify and that is all.
