Captured suspect identified in five robberies
Police have detained a 25-year-old man who has been positively identified in at least five recent robberies.
Crime Chief Wendell Blanhum said that the suspect was arrested in Robb Street and has been positively identified as having participated in five robberies which occurred near various wharves.
The suspect and two others were charged in 2011 for carting off $5M from the Regional Democratic Office at Linden.
It was alleged that the robbers used a gas cutting torch to open a canister in which the money was kept after holding a security guard at gunpoint and severely beating him.
They were each released on $500,000 bail.
