WILLIAMSBURG, Va — The Williamsburg Police Department is seeking the public's help with finding one of the two Florida men who were involved in a financial fraud incident that occurred on College Row on June 29.

On September 27, authorities apprehended 26- year-old suspect Dhrai Justin Davis. 32-year-old Jermaine Clive Gobern, the other suspect involved in the incident, is still at large. Both men are from Tampa, Florida.

The investigation began in June when both men attempted to purchase five one-wheel electric boards, totaling $12,757.3. The men did attempt to make the purchase using two different credit cards that both declined.

On their third attempt, the card did process, leaving the store employee to become suspicious and report the incident.

The department urges anyone with information on Gobern's whereabouts to contact the Williamsburg Police Department at 757-220-2331 or Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP. Police describe Gobern as a black male, 6’2” tall, 230 lbs, with brown eyes and black hair.
