Man Held Gun To Victim's Head In Bensalem Robbery: Police

BENSALEM TOWNSHIP, PA —A New York man has been charged with robbery after he put a gun to the head of his victim and said "I'll kill you" if he didn't hand over the money withdrawn from an ATM, police said.

Bensalem Police have charged Antwan Clayton Jones, 42, of Ellenville, N.Y., with robbery, making terroristic threats, theft by unlawful taking, receiving stolen property, and simple assault.

On Monday, Bensalem Police responded to the parking lot of the Kohl's Department Store on Street Road for the report of a robbery.

The victim told police that he was withdrawing money from the ATM at the Bank of America on Street Road when he noticed a man standing behind him in line.

After making a withdrawal, the victim began riding his bicycle from the bank when he was approached by the same man behind the Kohl's store on Street Road, police said.

The man exited his vehicle, put a gun to the victim's head, and stated "Give me your money or I'll kill you," the victim told police.

The suspect took $1,000 in cash and fled the area in a gray Nissan Altima.

Utilizing various forms of technology, police were able to identify Jones, tracking the rental vehicle to a Street Road business.

Police found the vehicle in the parking lot, entered the business, and took Jones into custody without incident. The vehicle was towed to the Bensalem Township Police Department and a search warrant was obtained.

During the vehicle search, Bensalem Police discovered clothing used in the robbery, marijuana, drug paraphernalia, and a loaded.22 caliber semi-automatic handgun with the hammer cocked and the safety off.

Jones does not have a permit to carry a concealed weapon.

Jones was arraigned by District Justice Stacy Wertman and sent to the Bucks County Correctional Facility on 10 percent of $250,000 bail.
