"I think by now everyone knows this situation involved drugs and an armed robbery attempt," said Hoover police Capt. Gregg Rector in a statement. "There was some planning in advance by the suspects, and we are continuing to sort out everyone’s specific involvement. Additional arrests are certainly still a possibility."

Detectives obtained the warrant against Akamune on Saturday. He was booked into the Jefferson County Jail just before 2 p.m. His bond was initially set at $60,000 but now stands at $150,000.
