Then, on Wednesday, Feb. 26, while being seen in Circuit Court on the misdemeanor charges he was arrested on, Person was served with another warrant signed by Chambers for revocation of bond with the original charges being domestic battery, misdemeanor theft, and interference with an emergency call.

His total bond was set at $3,500 cash -- $2,500 cash in his drug possession case and $1,000 cash in his bond revocation case.
