A man already in jail has been arrested again.

Major Ginny Higgins with the St. Martin Parish Correctional Center says 23-year-old Jacob James Joseph of Cecilia is accused of robbing the Dollar General Store on Cecilia Senior High School Highway on July 15th. Major Higgins says the suspect went into the store armed with a handgun and took an undisclosed amount of cash from the register.

But Joseph was already arrested on July 18 and placed into the St. Martin Parish Correctional Center on unrelated charges. So, he was re-booked on one count of Armed Robbery Monday and, so far, no bond has been set.
