Early Morning Crash Claims Life of Dothan Man

(DOTHAN, Ala.) On October 15, 2026, just before 2:00 am, the Dothan Police Department responded to a motor vehicle crash in the 2700 block of Ross Clark Circle. Initial reports were that a vehicle crashed, and the driver was ejected from the vehicle. Officers arrived on scene to find a male just off the roadway. The victim, identified as Charlie Lee Wright Jr. (36) of Dothan, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Dothan Police Department’s Crash Team was called to investigate. The preliminary investigation revealed Wright’s vehicle left the road briefly and lost control. Wright’s vehicle then overturned, which ejected Wright from the vehicle. Speed is believed to be a factor in the crash. The investigation into the circumstances of the crash is ongoing.

Our thoughts are with the friends and family of Charlie Wright Jr. as they go through this difficult time.

Man Arrested After Attempting to Elude Police; Woman Arrested Trying to Obstruct His Arrest

On October 12, 2026, just after 9:00 pm, a Dothan Police Officer observed a vehicle commit a traffic infraction on Honeysuckle Road near the Wells Fargo building. The officer activated his lights to initiate a traffic stop, but the driver failed to pull over. The vehicle attempted to elude the officer for about 3 miles before stopping in a parking lot in the 1300 block of Fortner Street. During the incident, the officer observed a small bag thrown from the vehicle as speeds reached 55 miles per hour. An officer quickly located the bag and determined it contained marijuana.

As officers were giving commands to the driver to exit the vehicle, another vehicle pulled up with a female who began obstructing the officers from getting the driver to safely exit the vehicle. The female, identified as Daphney Arpreatrae McCray (49) of Dothan, had to be restrained when she began actively resisting the officers’ attempt to detain her. Once the female was detained, the male, identified as Jakorey Keshaun Corbitt (27) of Dothan, exited the vehicle and was taken into custody. During a search of the vehicle, officers found a Glock handgun in the vehicle. It was later revealed the McCray was the mother of Corbitt.

Corbitt was charged with one felony count of Attempting to Elude a Law Enforcement Officer, Possession of Marijuana 2^nd degree, and Tampering with Physical Evidence. McCray was charged with Obstructing Governmental Operations and Resisting Arrest. Corbitt was booked into the Houston County Jail, and McCray was booked into the Dothan City Jail.

Man Charged After Shooting Himself; Lies to Police About Random Attack

DOTHAN, Ala. — On September 27, 2026, the Dothan Police Department responded to the 2000 block of Hodgesville Road regarding a male who had suffered a gunshot wound to the lower leg.

Officers arrived on scene and located the male, identified as Mitchell Dean Wilson Jr., 34, of Dothan. Wilson was transported to a local hospital for treatment. Wilson told officers that an unknown male had emerged from the wood line and began firing a handgun, striking him in the lower leg.

Criminal investigators responded to the scene and began an investigation.

During the investigation, investigators observed that the trajectory of Wilson’s gunshot wound did not match his reported story. The location and angle of the wound were inconsistent with Wilson’s account and indicated that the injury was either self-inflicted or occurred at close range.

Investigators continued the investigation and determined that Wilson had shot himself while improperly handling a firearm. The firearm was later recovered during the execution of a search warrant at a residence where Wilson was living.

Wilson eventually admitted that he had lied to investigators about the circumstances of the shooting because he had prior criminal convictions that prohibited him from legally possessing or handling a firearm.

Wilson remained at the hospital to receive treatment while the investigation continued.

Wilson has been charged with one count of False Reporting to Law Enforcement and one count of Certain Persons Forbidden to Carry a Firearm. He is currently being sought by the Dothan Police Department on active arrest warrants.

Anyone with information regarding Wilson’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Dothan Police Department at 334-793-0215 or Central Alabama CrimeStoppers at 334-215-STOP. Anonymous tips may also be submitted online at P3TIPS.com.
