A man and a woman, both from Central Falls, were arrested and charged with first degree robbery and conspiracy on Sunday after being identified by an alleged victim.
19-year-old Justine Igo and 47-year-old Emilio Morales were arrested after stealing from a male Igo met at a bar on August 23rd.
The victim reported to police he met a female on Dexter Street and went with her back to her home. Once inside the apartment, he told police that he was held up by Igo who was wielding a kitchen knife and Morales who was holding a revolver style handgun.
The victim complied, handing over his wallet containing $600.00 before he fled the apartment. He was then able to take police to the residence where he identified the female who opened the door as one of the suspects.
Central Falls Police located Igo’s roommate, Emilio Morales, shortly after. The victim positively identified Morales as the second suspect.
Morales and Igo were arraigned at the Sixth District Court and held without bail. They are scheduled for a bail hearing on September 3rd.
