Man, 18, Charged In Connection With Knifepoint Robbery: Greenwich PD

GREENWICH, CT — An 18-year-old Bridgeport man has been charged in connection with the March knifepoint robbery of a 67-year-old resident, the Greenwich Police Department announced this week.

Jordan Chamberlain turned himself in to police on June 21 on a warrant that charges him with first-degree robbery; second-degree larceny; third-degree assault on an elderly victim; second-degree threatening with a physical threat; and unlawful restraint.

Police said Chamberlain demanded money from a man who was exiting a Wells Fargo Bank ATM vestibule on West Putnam Avenue on the evening of March 19.

Chamberlain brandished a knife and pushed the man back into the vestibule, preventing him from leaving, police said. Chamberlain robbed the man of his money, and cut the man's hand with the knife during the encounter, police noted. Chamberlain, who was wearing a black face covering, fled the area on foot.

Chamberlain could not post a court-set bond of $250,000 and is scheduled to appear in Stamford Superior Court on July 6.
