Blotter: Two men arrested during alleged robbery
Arrest reports from Nov. 21 to 26, 2012
Two men were arrested at about 10:30 p.m. last night while in the process of a robbery, police say.
Police responded to a call about a robbery in progress near the corner of Pine Street and Sewall Avenue, Police Chief Mark Kinmon said.
One suspect attempted to flee the house and was apprehended on the roof after he was observed to be in possession of a handgun, Kinmon said. He was arrested at the scene and police recovered the hangun, which he had discarded while fleeing.
The other suspect was found in the attic of the home and was in possession of a handgun, Kinmon said. The police did not find any stolen goods on either suspect, but “recovered a large amount of cocaine,” Kinmon said.
As a result, Andrew Armentrout, 29, of Bradley Beach, and Tyler Marshall, 24, of Hamilton, were both arrested and charged with robbery, possession of an unlawful weapon and possession of a controlled dangerous substance [CDS].
“It’s very difficult to catch somebody in the act,” Kinmon said. “When it does happen, we’re very pleased.”
Anyone with information regarding the incident is asked to contact Detective Darrius Davis at 732-502-5770.
