Chance Mobley, 19, of 124 Lawrence St., Carlisle; William D. Jeter, 18, of 112 Lawrence St., and Rodney Cornelius Whitener Jr., 18, of 3573 Janie Goree Boulevard all were charged with armed robbery. Whitener also was charged with giving false information to police. A 16-year old who was with the other teen-agers was taken into Department of Juvenile Justice custody. He also will be charged with armed robbery. His name was not released because of his age.
A report said officers were dispatched to Carlisle around 6:20 p.m. after it was reported a robbery had occurred near the park on Cambridge Avenue. Deputies were told that the suspects had left in a gray Jeep Cherokee.
The victims — one a 15-year-old girl and the other a 20-year-old man — said the suspects had followed them as they walked to the Li’L Cricket. When they came out of the building, the suspects were still waiting on them. All of the suspects got into the Jeep and pulled up to them. Whitener and the 16-year-old got out of the Jeep. Whitener put a small revolver to the man’s side and took a gold necklace with a cross off the girl’s neck after the man refused to sell it.
Deputies found all four suspects at 4917 English Ave. in Carlisle standing outside the Jeep. The owner gave deputies consent to search the vehicle, but no gun was found.
