Two men accused of robbing several mobile phone shops

TOLEDO, Ohio (WTVG) — Two Toledo men have been arrested and face aggravated robbery charges after police say they were responsible for the robbery of multiple cell phone stores.

Police were called to the Metro PCS store in the 3100 block of Cherry on Monday afternoon for a robbery. They determined that two black men all wearing black clothing robbed the clerk at gunpoint and made off with the cash register drawers.

Police used K-9s to track the suspects, during which they found change, Metro PCS cards and cash. The trail led them to a house in the 300 block of Hillwood.

Police determined Kavarious Hall, 19, and Jaylin Ash, 18, were inside the home and may have been involved in the robbery. They were taken to the Safety Building for questioning, and after obtaining a search warrant for the house, further evidence was uncovered.

The investigation also determined that “one or more of the suspects” were involved in several other cell phone store robberies.

Both appeared in court on Wednesday. Hall faces three charges of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, and his bond has been set at $150,000. Ash faces a charge of aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon, and his bond has been set at $50,000.

Ash and Hall will return to court on January 13.
