On August 6, at approximately 9:37 PM, the Oxford Police Department received a 911 call about a male coming behind the counter of Rascals on Belk Blvd and taking money.
The suspect then ran out of the store. There were no reported injuries.
Oxford Police Officers quickly arrived and set up a perimeter around the surrounding area. Shortly later, officers located the suspect and took him into custody.
36-year-old Armando Nicholas Sanchez (of Taylor, MS) was taken to the Lafayette County Detention Center and charged with Robbery.
Sanchez will be arraigned later today and have his bond set then.
“This was a great team effort from the officers who were on shift and those who were at training but left to help. It’s what makes the Oxford Police Department special,” said Chief Jeff McCutchen.
