'Armed Serial Robbers' In Slew Of Crimes Nabbed: Tucson Police

TUCSON, AZ — Tucson police say they've nabbed two "serial armed robbers" linked to more than 20 crimes this year. Neville Waugh Jr., 28, and Andrea Carrasco, 25, were identified as the robbers by police in a Facebook post Thursday afternoon.

The duo was found in a stolen vehicle earlier this month on the 3600 block of East 32nd Street, located in the city's Julia Keen section. Both tried to run, but Carrasco was caught immediately, police said. Waugh Jr. was apprehended a short time later.

Both were booked into the Pima County Jail and face more than 60 charges, including armed robbery, robbery, burglary and auto theft, police said.

Tucson police have been actively investigating what they called "a series of armed robberies" at convenience stores throughout the city, which were committed by a man and a woman. Investigators began looking at a robbery that occurred on the 1600 block of East Broadway (Circle K) where a man entered a store and pulled a knife on the clerk. He demanded money as a woman began stealing cigarettes. The male also stole cigarettes and the two fled the area.

No one was hurt in any of the crimes, police said.
