Three arrested in robbery aftermath
Three arrested for armed robbery of Rite Aid in Stafford

Date published: 11/8/2009

Three people from out of the area have been arrested in connection with the Wednesday night armed robbery at a Rite Aid in Stafford County.

David A. Callison, 22, of Hopewell, Kristyn Renee Murray, 20, of Front Royal and Danielle Nicole Matthews, 20, of Dinwiddie were all arrested in Dinwiddie late Friday night, Stafford Sheriff's spokesman Bill Kennedy said. All three are charged with armed robbery, using a firearm in the commission of a felony and conspiracy to commit robbery. Callison is also charged with wearing a mask in public.

Detective Chris Cameron's investigation revealed that the three robbed the store at 1095 International Parkway to get money for drugs and court costs for unrelated cases. They had been at a party in Warrenton prior to the robbery. It is not clear what led police to the suspects, but the key information came from the Dinwiddie Sheriff's Office, Kennedy said.

Two suspects entered the store at 9:10 p.m. One posed as a customer, and the second one came in moments later displaying a handgun. They left in a dark pickup truck with an undisclosed amount of money.

Police initially thought that the suspect whose image was captured on a store surveillance camera was a young man, but she turned out to be a woman, Kennedy said. Police also did not know about the second woman, who was driving the getaway vehicle.

There were two similar robberies in Fauquier within 90 minutes of the Stafford robbery; police are still investigating the possibility that the same suspects were involved.

The pickup truck and the mask used in the Stafford robbery were recovered in Dinwiddie, Kennedy said. All three suspects were being held in Dinwiddie pending transfer to the Rappahannock Regional Jail.

how poor the photos were when you can't even tell gender.

What is clear (posted by frederickvegas , Nov. 8, 2009 11:30 am)    0 likes
is that your article containing a surveillance photo about the size of a match head the other day didn't help, FLS.
