Second Suspect In Wawa Robbery Awaiting Extradition: Police

WOODBRIDGE, VA — The D.C. Metropolitan Police Department arrested a second suspect last weekend in connection with the March 14 robbery of a Woodbridge Wawa, the Prince William County Police Department said Tuesday. The suspect, Todd Christopher Lawson, 51, of Alexandria, was taken into custody in D.C. on Sunday.

Lawson will remain in the D.C. jail until he gets extradited back to Prince William County on the charge of robbery, the police said.

The D.C. Metropolitan Police Department arrested the first suspect, Delfino Alexander Ramirez, 36, on April 5 in connection with the March 14 robbery and a March 30 larceny at a Sheetz in Woodbridge. Ramirez also is jailed in D.C. and is awaiting extradition to Prince William County to face charges of robbery and larceny, according to the police.

On March 14 at 1:35 a.m., Ramirez allegedly entered the Wawa on Daniel Stuart Square in Woodbridge and walked behind the counter. During the encounter, Ramirez allegedly took tobacco products and fled the store. An employee followed him out of the store and confronted him. At that point, Ramirez allegedly brandished a knife before fleeing in a silver sedan, according to the police. No injuries were reported.

Prince William County police detectives said another suspect was involved in the March 14 robbery at Wawa. On April 9, the police determined the second suspect who entered and left the store just before the robbery occurred and allegedly fled with Ramirez was Lawson.
