Jackson, Mich. (WKHM) — Authorities with the Jackson County Office of the Sheriff (JCSO) say that the final two suspects allegedly involved with an armed robbery in the Hanover-Horton area back in February have been arrested.
County Sheriff Gary Schuette announced that the two suspects sought in connection with the February 24 armed robbery have been taken into custody, effectively concluding the search for the individuals involved in this violent incident.
Following an intensive investigation and widespread public appeal, Richie Jimenez was successfully apprehended near Olivet College on April 2.
