Police Identify Second Suspect in Radio Shack Robbery

With a new suspect identified, Goose Creek Police issued another call for the public's assistance in solving a July armed robbery and kidnapping at the Radio Shack in goose creek.

Two men are wanted in connection with the incident July 28. A woman employed at the store was arrested in connection with the robbery and charged with criminal conspiracy.

Suspect Kireem Jamie McCoy, 22, was named as a suspect soon after the armed robbery. On Friday, Goose Creek Police identified the other robbery suspect: Vincent Simmons.

Both men are wanted for armed robbery, two counts of kidnapping, conspiracy and possession of a firearm during a violent crime.

A store manager at the Radio Shack at 607 St. James Avenue told police that the two men were wearing hoods when they came into the store. She said they claimed to be armed and demanded that merchandise cages be opened.

They allegedly forced one employee into a backroom and told her not to move, while another employee, Arriel Lucille Sanders, 21, was told to open cages. The suspects reportedly also took cash from a register and fled out the back door. 

En route to respond to the call, officers noticed a suspicious car heading in the opposite direction, weaving through traffic with its headlights off. After the car was stopped, the occupants fled. Police traced the tags of the car back to Sanders' address.

After questioning, Sanders was arrested. She was charged with armed robbery, two counts of kidnapping and criminal conspiracy. She remains housed at the Hill-Finklea Detention Center on a $275,000 bond.

The GCPD warns that both men should be considered armed and dangerous. Anyone who sees either man should call 911 or the GCPD at 843-863-5200.

Police weren't the only ones looking for McCoy. Officers responded to a call of an attempted assault at the Goose Creek Boulevard Waffle House early July 29 after Sanders' family had heard McCoy was at the diner. The suspect fled the scene when members of Sanders' family approached him.
