According to the sheriff’s office, the robbery happened on February 8 on Towe Road, where the male victim had given a woman a ride to get belongings from a home belonging to Nicholas Ferguson. When they arrived, they were met by Ferguson and Mayberry, who removed the male victim at gunpoint while wielding a pink sawed-off shotgun. The victim was ordered to remove his clothes and was robbed the clothes, cash, and his vehicle.
Investigators also said the suspects threatened to sodomize the victim with a baseball bat, but when Mayberry was distracted while looking for the bat, the victim fled on foot. The suspects fired at the victim while he was running but missed. He got help from a neighbor who called the sheriff’s office.
Investigators obtained warrants for Mayberry and Ferguson after determining their identities. The next day, Mayberry went to a residence on County Line Road in a second stolen vehicle and attempted to gain entry, but the resident stopped him. Mayberry fired a shot into the residence and left. This vehicle was later located on Eastep Road in Southwestern Limestone County.

They were able to prevent a pursuit and any additional risk to bystanders, safely arresting Mayberry and the driver of the vehicle, who was in allegedly in possession of drug paraphernalia.
