Jones allegedly left the interior of his home on October 7, 2025, without his mother present, violating the terms of home monitoring imposed after a 2024 charge of giving a false fire alarm.

On the same day, Jones is accused of throwing a brick through a window, resulting in the criminal damage to property charge.

The charges stem from actions that occurred while Jones was under court-ordered supervision at his residence.

All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
