WARREN — Four suspects could face life in prison for an alleged armed robbery and assault with intent to murder in January.
Jayvion Adams, 19, of Grosse Pointe Park; Dangelo Dove, 22, of Detroit; Elijah Dove, of Clinton Township; and Eleze Green, 19, of Detroit, were arraigned in 37th District Court in Warren on Feb. 6. All were charged with armed robbery and assault with intent to murder. Each charge comes with a maximum penalty of life in prison.
In addition, Dangelo Dove and Adams were charged with carrying a concealed weapon, a five-year felony. Dove and Adams were also arraigned on felony weapons charges, each punishable by up to two years in jail.
According to Warren Police, the alleged robbery and assault started on Jan. 31, when a 21-year-old man from Detroit was looking to purchase a 9 mm weapon for $350. The would-be buyer and seller connected via Instagram where the buyer was told to come alone and bring the money. Once he arrived at the agreed location, one of suspects allegedly produced a semi-automatic 9 mm handgun and demanded the victim’s money. He reportedly refused to comply.
“Two of the suspects began searching his pockets then punched, kicked and pistol-whipped the victim to the ground,” said Warren Police Commissioner Bill Dwyer. “He attempted to fight back and was shot twice, in the arm and in the leg.”
Police said the four suspects involved went to an apartment located in the 26000 block of Ryan Road in Warren and barricaded themselves inside.
“The response team through our negotiators brought the four suspects out of the apartment and (there was a) surrender on the scene without incident,” said Dwyer. “I have to give credit to the officers that were on the scene.”
The four defendants are scheduled for a preliminary examination in the 37th District Court on Mar. 21.
Phone calls placed to the attorneys representing the suspects were unreturned at press time.
