FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 5, 2007

Outstanding police work by East Precinct Officer Mickey Yentes has landed three robbery suspects behind bars.

Ex-con Maurice Boyd, 36, of Clarksville Pike, Brandon Black, 23, of Hendersonville, and Lisa Fox, 43, homeless, are charged with aggravated robbery.

The victim flagged down Officer Yentes Monday night at 1801 Dickerson Pike and told him he had just been robbed by two men. He had purchased six cartons of Newport cigarettes at a convenience store and was walking through the Krystal parking lot at 100 West Trinity Lane at 11:30 p.m. when the suspects pointed a gun at him and told him to drop the cigarettes and run. The victim complied.

Officer Yentes soon spotted the suspects walking on West Trinity Lane at Brick Church Pike. They were accompanied by Fox. She was carrying a bag containing several cartons of Newport cigarettes.

As Officer Yentes approached the suspects, Boyd began to pull a handgun from his waistband, but he dropped the weapon after Officer Yentes ordered him to do so. All three suspects were taken into custody.

When Fox was told she was going to jail, she said she wished Boyd and Black had shot the victim.

In addition to aggravated robbery, Boyd is charged with unlawful possession of a weapon, and is being held in lieu of $515,000 dollars bond. Black is being held in lieu of $300,000 dollars bond, and Fox is being held in lieu of 276,000 dollars bond.
