The theme of this year's festival was "We Know Music" and they certainly delivered on that promise, with 10 artists ranging from jazz and rock and roll, to gospel and R&B.

Jane Thomas helped organize this year's festival. She said the event helps bring the community together.

Three men were arrested Tuesday for allegedly attempting to rob a gas station and several homes in Perry.

According to a news release from the Perry Police Department, 17-year-old Donnell Robert Stinson, of Perry, 17-year-old Trevion Jamal Richardson, of Perry, and 21-year-old Willie Bernard Collier, Jr., of Byron, are all charged with robbery, criminal attempt to commit burglary, theft by taking and armed robbery.

The release states the suspects were spotted near a location where a home burglary had just happened. When officers tried talking to them, they fled on foot. They were chased into the Creekwood Park area where they were later arrested.

Richardson and Stinson were also identified, the release says, as being involved in an armed robbery at a Circle 9 convenience store at 423 General Courtney Hodges Boulevard back in July.

$45,000 of property was recovered.
