Fairfax County police have reeled in another suspect who allegedly was involved in a June 25 robbery in Tysons.
Detectives with the police department’s Fugitive Tracking and Apprehension Unit, aided by the U.S. Marshals Service and Ohio State Highway Patrol, on Aug. 15 tracked one of the suspects, a 24-year-old Pennsylvania man, to a location in Ohio.
Authorities located the suspect, Abdullah Robinson, and took him into custody. Authorities have charged Robinson robbery, larceny with intent to sell, conspiracy to commit larceny, conspiracy to commit retail theft, assault with a caustic substance, destruction of property and pettylarceny.
Robinson is being held without bond and will be remanded to Fairfax County, police said.
During the robbery, which happened at a high-end retail store in Tysons Galleria, multiple suspects took handbags and one allegedly discharged a fire extinguisher at a loss-prevention employee to escape from the scene. No one was injured during the robbery, which resulted in the theft of more than $60,000 worth of merchandise, county police said.
The suspects fled the scene in a white Alfa Romeo that likely had stolen or altered license plates, police said.
On Aug. 7, the U.S. Marshals Taskforce team, in coordination with county police, arrested another 24-year-old Pennsylvania man, Onntrell Cunningham, in Philadelphia on charges of robbery, larceny with intent to sell, conspiracy to commit a felony, assault via a caustic substance, organized retail theft, destruction of property and petit larceny.
