Mikell shot out the window March 24 just before midnight at a package store on Highway 138 in Stockbridge, police said.

After police issued a public lookout, Smith said several tipsters contacted officers and named Mikell as a possible suspect. After detectives got a warrant, the Clayton County Sheriff’s Office assisted in locating Mikell at a home on Fountain Circle, Smith said.

Mikell is charged with interference with government property, police said. He has bonded out of the Henry County jail.
