Three suspects arrested in Crittenden Co. after allegedly staging a crash

Three individuals from West Helena were arrested after reporting a motor vehicle accident and claiming to be injured; however, authorities say they learned that the accident was, in fact, staged.

After learning the accident was staged, the three suspects were transported to the Crittenden County Jail. Upon searching the vehicles, officers uncovered a stolen gun in the car along with narcotics and paraphernalia. All three suspects have been charged with felony filing a false police report and felony criminal mischief.
