MOM SPOTS SON ON TV & TURNS HIM IN FOR ROBBERY
All three suspects in the armed robbery of four Georgia State University students at a campus dorm are in custody, school officials said Thursday morning.GSU police Deputy Chief Carlton Mullis identified the suspects as Quinton Arnold, 18, Dantevious Devall Patrick, 18, and Dorian Demetrius Stroud, 19. Arnold is a current GSU student, and Stroud is a former GSU student last enrolled in the fall of 2012. Patrick has no affiliation with GSU, according to school spokeswoman Andrea Jones.The robbery happened shortly after 7 p.m. Wednesday in Building C at University Commons, a 2,000-student housing complex on Piedmont Avenue. The suspects knocked on the door and two of the suspects pointed a hand gun in the students’ faces before robbing them of an iPad and cell phones, police said in a campus crime alert. The trio of suspects then left through a stairwell, according to police. No injuries were reported.
Mullis said that one of the victims recognized Arnold, who also lives in the University Commons complex. That victim texted Arnold and asked him to meet him outside on Piedmont Avenue. “He did, and we arrested him,” Mullis said. Police later released a photo of the suspects from security video. Patrick “saw himself on the video and called Atlanta police and turned himself in and APD turned him over to us,” according to Mullis.
He said Stroud’s mother recognized her son from the video photo “and she brought him in to GSU police about 6 a.m.” All three were booked into the Fulton County Jail, charged with armed robbery, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, aggravated assault and burglary.
Mullis said one of the suspects and at least one of the victims knew one another.
Damn shame!
