Two men with lengthy criminal histories have been arrested again in Clarksville. 

Officials with Clarksville Police said 24-year-old Gavin Ray Oliver was arrested around 4 a.m. Monday after getting caught entering an unlocked car. 

Police were called to the parking lot of a Walmart on Wilma Rudolph Boulevard after witnesses reported the incident.

Police said he had a warrant on file for a probation violation. 

At the time of his arrest, Oliver was with 27-year-old Jacob Scott Knight. Police said Knight had a stolen credit card, marijuana and drug paraphernalia in his possession. 

Both were taken into custody and booked at the Montgomery County Jail.

Knight was charged with theft of property, unlawful drug paraphernalia and three counts of simple possession. His bond was set at $24,500.
