Franklin Police say alert clerks and Galleria security worked with them yesterday afternoon to take two felons off of Franklin streets. We're told security used cameras to track two suspects whom a clerk reported were attempting to use bogus credit cards to buy diamond jewelry inside of the mall. When arriving Franklin Police Officers approached, they tell us one of the men fled on foot but was quickly apprehended. Officials say together, both suspects possessed 14 fraudulent credit cards and two counterfeit driver’s licenses. Inside the duo’s rental car, officers tell us they discovered merchandise purchased in Ohio, Nashville, and Franklin valued at approximately $70,000. Recovered merchandise included high-end jewelry, designer handbags, and an Apple computer. Police say they found 13 more fraudulent credit cards in the vehicle. Jermon Trammell, 30, and 27-year-old Jai Barker are both thought to be from Dayton Ohio and have been charged with Theft over $60,000 and Criminal Simulation. Trammell was also charged with evading arrest. His bond is set at $1,003,000.00. Barker’s bond was set at $1,002,00.00. Both men remain in custody and are due in court on September 20.
