A traffic stop on Berryman Road Thursday led to the arrest of a Vicksburg man wanted on forgery charges.

Ricky Ballard, 37, of Vicksburg, was the passenger of the vehicle stopped. He had an outstanding warrant for uttering a forgery that stemmed from a forged check being cashed in October 2020.

During his initial court appearance Thursday, Ballard received a $30,000 bond from Judge Angela Carpenter.
