Police blotter

October 06, 1996|By TaNoah Morgan | TaNoah Morgan,SUN STAFF

County police arrested two Laurel men and a youth Thursday in the holdup of a Laurel Roy Rogers outlet, county police said.

Amal Daniel Benson, 18, of the 200 block of Easton St. South, Mikal Ramone Evans, 17, and Terrence Antonio Brooks, 23, both of the 100 block of Easton St. South, were charged with armed robbery. Evans was charged as an adult.

Police said a former employee of the restaurant in the 3300 block of Laurel Fort Meade Road and two friends were armed with a gun and a knife when they forced open a glass panel that allowed them to open the door and sneak in as employees were arriving about 5 a.m.

The three accosted the manager at gunpoint, forced her to open a safe, took an undisclosed amount of money and ran away, police said. The manager, who was not identified, told police she recognized one of the robbers as a former employee.

The manager of a nearby hotel saw three men running from the store after the robbery and thought they might have been the same men he saw circling the restaurant in a car about midnight.

He gave police the car's tag number, which he had copied down, and police began checking the area.

A short time later, police said, they saw the car parked in front of an apartment in the 200 block of Easton St. South. As an officer drove past, two men who were standing near the car walked away and went into an apartment.

The officer waited outside until the two returned, then searched them and found money and ammunition, police said.

Police said they could see a kitchen knife believed to have been used in the robbery and hats and coats on the floor of the car. Police arrested the men and went to another apartment and arrested the occupant.

The man asked if any other employees were in the building, then reached for his waistband, as if he were armed, and demanded money.

The clerk gave the man cash from the register, and the man fled west on Dorsey Road, police said. They searched the area but did not find the robber. The robber was described as white, between 25 and 30 years old and 6 feet tall with a thin build. He had a thin brown mustache and brown hair that was spiked on top and long in the back. The man was wearing a long-sleeved blue denim shirt and blue jeans.

Alt looked outside and saw the man walking from behind the house toward Fitzallen Road. Alt walked outside and told the man to stop, police said. When he refused, Alt and his son caught the man and held him for police.
