A grand jury indictment of a Carthage man for being a felon in possession of a firearm was unsealed today in U. S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri.
According to the indictment, Jeromy Michael Daughtery, 32, was arrested with a firearm September 7.
Jasper County Circuit Court record indicate the Carthage Police Department arrested Daughtery that day and the Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney charged him with unlawful possession of a firearm and resisting arrest.
From the probable cause statement:
On 09/07/2025 at approximately 1417 I, Cpl. Snow, attempted to conduct a traffic stop on Jeromy Daughtery riding a bicycle for failing to signal as he turned south onto the 200 block of south Francis from the alley.I turned on my emergency lights and chirped my siren at him. He did not turn around to look. He continued into the 300 block of Francis where he looked back at me, held up his hand signaling to wait. He continued east into the alley picking up speed attempting to elude me. I got along side him and passed him, stopping in front of him behind 313 Sophia.
As I exited my vehicle Daughtery was tangled with his bicycle trying to run.
Daughtery got free from the bicycle and began running north towards the residence. Daughtery quickly tripped and fell to the ground on his stomach. I got on top of his back and got his hands behind his back.
Daughtery advised he had a gun on him. He said the gun was not his and that he had just taken it from a 16 year old. I asked Daughtery if he was a felon and he said yes.
