Police Charge Couple in Robbery of Laurel Woman

A man and woman have been arrested for robbing a Laurel woman last month as she got out of her vehicle at her apartment building.

Anne Arundel County Police say the armed robbery happened about 8:23 p.m. March 23 near 3407 Holly Creek Drive. A man armed with a silver handgun demanded the victim’s purse, keys and cellphone. When she refused to turn over her keys, the suspect pulled back the slide on his handgun and threatened to kill the woman, police said.

The suspect took the purse and keys and drove away, throwing the keys in the parking lot. Surveillance video in the area took footage of the possible suspects using the victim’s credit cards.

On April 4, detectives from the Howard County Police Department, along with the U.S. Marshals, located Antoin Robinson at an undisclosed location and took him into custody without incident. Robinson, 32, of 7219 Flag Harbor Drive in District Heights is being held without bail at the Dorsey Run Correctional Center in Howard County.

A woman shown in the surveillance video with Robinson, has been identified and arrested, as well. Jackelyn Lindsey Castaneda-Tomlinson, 19, of 3940 Warner Ave. in Landover Hills, was arrested and released on bond.
