A teen accused with Jackson Mayor Frank Melton of damaging a house has been arrested on a carjacking charge.

Michael Taylor, 17, was arrested on Nov. 18, according to the Jackson Police Department. Police say the carjacking occurred Nov. 16 at the corner of Bailey Avenue and Maple Street.

Melton and detectives Michael Recio and Marcus Wright were indicted Sept. 15 on charges related to damage caused to a duplex in a northwest Jackson neighborhood.

Melton has called the residence a drug house, and prosecutors allege the mayor, the detectives and Taylor used sledgehammers and other implements to damage the house during an Aug. 26 raid. Taylor was not charged.

The officers and Melton are charged with felony malicious mischief, two counts of conspiracy and one count of directing a minor to commit a felony. Melton and Wright also face a burglary charge.

Melton is scheduled for trial in April.
