Family of Alleged Co-Conspirator Chase Radio Shack Robbery Suspect

Police weren't the only ones looking for Kireem Jamie McCoy last weekend. McCoy is on St. James Avenue.

A Radio Shack employee was arrested for allegedly conspiring with McCoy. Police would later find members of the woman's family trying to track McCoy down.

At 9 p.m. Saturday night, two men wearing hoods allegedly came into the Radio Shack and demanded that employees open the merchandise cages.

In the process of the investigation, police determined that the car the two men allegedly used to leave the scene was registered to the home of one of the employees: 21-year-old Arriel Lucille Sanders. She was charged with armed robbery, two counts of kidnapping and criminal conspiracy and is still being held at Hill-Finklea Detention Center.

Officers responded to a call of an attempted assault at the Waffle House on St. James Avenue near 1:45 a.m. Sunday morning. A witness told police that a driver pulled into the parking lot and jumped out of his car, chasing another man across Hwy. 52.

The driver came back to the parking lot and spoke to police, telling them he was Sanders' brother and he had spotted McCoy. Police have warned that McCoy should be considered armed and dangerous and should not be approached.

Learning that McCoy was then spotted in the area of the Burger King, not far away on Goose Creek Boulevard, officers drove up to the restaurant to find Sanders' father. He was walking along the road in his own hunt for McCoy.

After searching the area, police say that McCoy could not be found. The Sanders family was warned to leave this case to law enforcement.
