Athens, GA – 16 March 2021 – A pair of Atlanta repossession agents found themselves looking down the barrel of a gun early Tuesday when authorities report that a man named “Bugg”, armed with a pistol, put the brakes on their attempt to repossess a car in Athens.
Athens-Clarke police report that the incident occurred about 1:30 am in the parking lot of a Howard Johnson’s motel on Atlanta Highway, where an unnamed 36-year-old Duluth repo man found a 2016 Volkswagen Jetta that was on his repo hot list.
The repo man called a co-worker to bring a tow truck to the location, and as they loaded the car, the men told police that Kevonte Bugg, 26, of Cellar Court, Athens, emerged from a motel room and angrily confronted them.
When police searched the Jetta, officers reported recovering a Glock 45 9mm handgun, 63 rounds of ammunition, a baggie of a substance that tested positive for cocaine and methamphetamine, a tube with a substance that tested positive for heroin, digital scales and four cell phones.
Bugg then allegedly began “cussing him out” and threatened to kill them, according to the report. Both men reported that Bugg pointed a gun at them and when Bugg drove off in the Jetta, they followed and called 911.
Responding officers caught up to the Jetta on Lone Star Road in a neighborhood off Cleveland Road, where Bugg was pulled over and arrested.
Bugg was charged with possession of a firearm during a felony, two counts of possessing controlled drugs and two counts of aggravated assault.
