Morris is charged with trafficking more than 30 grams of cocaine and possession of a firearm by a felon. He’s being held at the Lee County Jail on a $50,000 bond.
Tupelo Police Chief Bart Aguirre says the arrest was a part of a near five-week investigation following a Feb. 5 shooting at Morris’ residence. Morris told police that armed men tried to rob his residence and a juvenile female was shot in the process.
