Two Vance County men charged with acting as a bail bondsman without a license, breaking and entering, felonious restraint, simple assault


North Carolina Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey today announced the arrests of James Otis Perry, 76, of 610 E. Montgomery St., Henderson, and James DeCarlo Alston, 44, of 177 Tungsten Mine Road, Henderson. Both were charged with felony breaking and entering and felonious restraint. The two were also charged with acting as a bail bondsman without a license and simple assault, both misdemeanors.


Special agents with the Department of Insurance’s Criminal Investigations Division accuse the two of acting as bail bondsmen without a license when they broke into an apartment on Franklin Court in Louisburg, striking a man at the apartment, restraining him and taking him to the Franklin County Sheriff’s office.


The offenses occurred on Aug. 21.


The two were arrested on Oct. 14.


Special agents expect to arrest an additional person in the case.
