VIRGINIA BEACH - Two victims of an attempted armed robbery declined to give anything to their assailants, and police say they arrested the three assailants shortly after they fled the scene emptyhanded early this morning in Virginia Beach.
Howard Parham, Alexander Johnson and Michael Cattani, all 18-year-old Virginia Beach residents, are each charged with two counts of robbery, as well as firearm and conspiracy charges. They are being held in the Virginia Beach Correctional Center without bond.
Police spokesman Adam Bernstein said a man and a woman were walking home from Chimney Hills Shopping Center around 2:30 a.m. after getting off work. As they walked on Rosemont Road, they saw a vehicle pull into the parking lot of a church near the intersection with Stoneshore Road. Three males got out of the vehicle and approached the two people, and one of the males displayed a handgun and demanded that they hand over "everything."
Bernstein said the woman ran to a nearby house for assistance and the man threatened to call police. The three males then got back into their vehicle and fled the scene. The man and woman provided descriptions of the men and their vehicle, and moments later an officer spotted the vehicle on a nearby street and detained the three males inside. They were arrested and charged at the detective bureau.
