Two plead guilty in Pike County armed robbery, shooting

PIKE COUNTY, Miss. (WJTV) – The Pike County Sheriff’s Office announced two men pled guilty in connection to a shooting and an armed robbery.

The incident occurred on Pleasant Grove Road on April 23, 2024. Pike County deputies said when they arrived at the location, they found the victim suffering from an apparent gunshot wound to the neck.

Detectives located two suspects fleeing the scene. They were identified as Curdarrean Carr, 18, and Joseph Stewart, 18, both of Pike County. Carr and Stewart were arrested and booked into the Pike County Jail.

During the investigation, deputies said they discovered that Carr and Stewart had stolen a handgun from the victim using a fake rifle to hold him at gunpoint. They said the victim resisted the robbery, which resulted in the suspects shooting him with his own handgun.

On September 9, 2024, the District Attorney’s Office filed an indictment against Carr and Stewart for armed robbery and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.

Both Carr and Stewart pled guilty to the charges on September 3, 2025. They were both sentenced to 20 years in the custody of the Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC).
