A man who is wanted for questioning in a Dec. 6 murder has been found.

Police say an alert Jonesboro resident helped them apprehend
Orlando Jackson and 24-year-old Marcus Griffin.

Clayton County police spokesman India Smith said the resident
noticed two men at a vacant, bank-owned foreclosure home Thursday morning and called police.

Officers saw the suspects run away into woods behind the house and tracked them down.

Smith said Griffin had a gun in his backpack. Police have been looking for Griffin since the Dec. 6 killing of 19-year-old Djwan Crocker in Ellenwood.

A 20-year-old man, Kleo Hughley, was previously charged with
felony murder in that killing, but police continue to search for
other suspects.
