Information Released By:  M/Cpl. Mark Hoffman, Public Information Officer

The Dover Police Department has charged three men in connection with a series of four armed robberies in the Dover area dating back to January 7th, 2016.  The suspects were identified as Devin Thomas (19), Anthony Stafford-Jordan (19), and Kameron Scott (18).  The suspects were contacted at 11:00PM on February 16th by the Delaware State University Police Department when they responded to  a noise complaint at one of the dorm buildings on campus.  Responding DSU officers took the suspects into custody on unrelated charges and soon discovered that Scott was wanted by the Delaware State Police.  DSU officers also observed that two of the subjects were wearing shoes similar to those seen in surveillance footage retrieved from previous robberies.

Dover Police Detectives responded to Delaware State Police Troop 3 to question the suspects.  Further investigation and questioning by the detectives connected the suspects to the following robberies in the City of Dover:
-January 7th, The Grocery Basket, 301 N. Bradford St.
-January 14th, WAWA, 2800 N. DuPont Hwy.
-January 18th, Hollywood Diner, 123 N. DuPont Hwy.
-February 1st, 7-11, 654 N. DuPont Hwy.
