CHARLESTON, W.Va. – Charleston Police made a fifth arrest late Friday night in connection with a home invasion in which an 84 year old woman was robbed at gunpoint.
Camri White, 18, of Charleston was taken into custody late Friday. He’s the latest in a string of suspects tied to the incident on Charleston’s Delaware Avenue back on Wednesday.
A 16-year-old juvenile was arrested Thursday, due in part to an ankle monitoring device issued to him by the county. The person was on probation.
The teenager was charged with first-degree robbery and burglary.
Charleston police then arrested 18-year-old Trevon Means Friday afternoon. Means has been charged with robbery and burglary.
On Friday evening, Charleston police made two more arrests. Jonathan Pannell, 18, and a second juvenile were arrested after running from police.
One officer was injured in the chase and was treated on the scene for minor injuries.
According to a criminal complaint, five people were involved in the robbery.
The home’s owner, an 84-year-old-woman, was threatened with shotgun while the suspects took items from her home. Charleston Police Chief of Detectives Lt. Steve Cooper says she was not physically harmed.
