Marblehead Man Charged In Salem Dunkin' Gunpoint Carjacking, Robbery

SALEM, MA — A 33-year-old Marblehead man became the second person charged on Tuesday in what Salem police called a "joint venture" to carjack a Dunkin' manager at gunpoint, rob her of the store's deposit bag and leave her bound.

Salem police said Yoel Perez-Feliz, of Marblehead, was taken into custody on Tuesday after Jose Luis Mendoza-Baez, 26, of Salem, was arrested on Friday.

Both men are charged with armed robbery while masked, carjacking while armed with a firearm, and kidnapping while armed with a firearm.

A Salem Dunkin' manager told police she was robbed at gunpoint, carjacked and left bound as the suspect fled with the store's deposit bag in a harrowing ordeal last Tuesday.

Police said they responded to Linden Street by Forest Avenue at about 1 p.m. where the woman said she was leaving with the store deposits when a man forced his way into the driver's side of her vehicle, pointed a gun at her, told her not to look at him and held her at gunpoint.

The victim told police she was then driven a short distance, robbed of the deposit bag and left bound as the suspect fled.
