Three men charged in apartment robbery
Erick Scott, Gregory Rogers-McKinney and Kennedy Dolo each face five felony charges including burglary, robbery with a firearm, theft of a firearm, terrorizing with a dangerous weapon and criminal mischief.
Armed men forced into apartment
On September 11th, four armed men forced their way through an apartment door, leaving visible damage. One resident had a gun pointed at his face immediately upon opening the door.
Suspects held victims at gunpoint
Police say the suspects ordered both men to the ground, searched one man's pockets for cash, then held the second man against a wall with a gun to the back of his head while ordering him not to look up.
Rifle, cash and phone stolen
The suspects took a nine millimeter rifle equipped with an optic and laser sight, along with a cell phone and additional cash, before fleeing on foot to a nearby vehicle. The entire incident lasted 10 to 15 minutes.
Connected to earlier marijuana robbery
Investigators say the robbery may be connected to an earlier unreported incident four days prior, in which the same two men were robbed at gunpoint while attempting to sell marijuana products.
Gray SUV and surveillance led to arrests
Detectives used nearby surveillance footage and license plate reader technology to identify a gray SUV registered to Dolo. Police conducted a high-risk traffic stop and arrested all three men after interviews established probable cause.
What matters most
Three men were arrested after an armed robbery at a Fargo apartment that lasted 10 to 15 minutes and may be connected to an earlier unreported robbery.
