Jackson Police Department patrol officers responded Tuesday evening around 7:30 pm, October 6, 2026, to a report a group of juveniles attempting to kick in the front doors in the area of Blossom Cove and Jackson Creek Drive.

Security camera footage from this location captured four juveniles attempting to force entry into the residences. At least one juvenile appeared to be in possession of what appeared to be a handgun.

Through information provided by the victims and witnesses, along with additional investigative work, officers were able to identify and locate four juveniles believed to be involved in the incidents. Officers made contact with the juveniles at locations on Stratford Lane. All four were taken into custody and transported to the Criminal Investigations Division for further investigation.

General Investigation Unit investigators also located one realistic-looking airsoft and BB gun at one of the residences. Charges are pending at this time and this is still an active ongoing investigation.
