One of two persons arrested during an incident on Friday, March 26, in Pettis County has been formally charged with two felonies.

According to the Sedalia Police Department, at approximately 7 p.m., patrol officers attempted to make contact with a male subject outside a residence at 611 South Missouri Avenue after recognizing him to have an active arrest warrant. At the time of contact, the male subject fled into the residence and barricaded himself against the door to prevent officers from making entry.

A short time later, the male subject was observed running from the residence after jumping from a second story window. Officers gave chase, and the male subject was taken into custody without further incident a short distance away.

A search incident to arrest confirmed the identity of the male as 36-year-old Brandon D. Rollett, of Windsor, who also allegedly was found to be in possession of an amount of methamphetamine consistent with him distributing the substance. Additional evidence to support illegal drug distribution also was located in Rollett’s possession.

The investigation further revealed 29-year-old Jessica Henderson with active warrants was hiding inside the residence.

Both subjects were transported to the Pettis County Jail and placed on a 24-hour hold.

Court documents say Rollett is charged with a Class C Felony for Delivery of a Controlled Substance and a Class E Felony for Resisting Arrest for a Felony. Bond is set at $30,000 cash or surety.

Rollett was arraigned on Monday, March 29. A counsel-status hearing is set for 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, April 6, at Pettis County Circuit Court.

Henderson has not been formally charged at this time.
