ROBBERY ARRESTS 12-22-16

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Department says two 18-year-olds have been arrested for robbing a woman during a Craigslist deal gone bad. The victim told deputies she was contacted by De’Shaun Allen and Thomas Wright about a necklace she had listed for sale on Craigslist. The suspects went to the victim’s home to view the necklace then Wright snatched it and the two fled in a car which they later wrecked before fleeing into a wooded area. They were caught hiding in the woods by a deputy and his K-9. Both were arrested and charged with robbery without a weapon and booked into the Escambia County Jail on a $5,000 bond.
