Columbus Police Department is asking for the public’s help finding an armed robbery suspect.
On May 27 three men allegedly entered the victim’s home after asking to use the bathroom, said CPD Public Information Officer Johannah Owusu. Once inside they held his small daughter at gunpoint and demanded cash, saying they needed it to pay rent.
The man knew his assailants, Owusu said.
Zachary Antwan Slaughter, 19, and Theodis Brown III, 29, were arrested on June 10 and charged with armed robbery. However, the third suspect, identified as Da’Quavious Robertson, is still at large.
Police ask anyone with any information to call Golden Triangle Crime Stoppers at 800-530-7151, or leave a tip through the P3 Tips app.
All tips remain anonymous and those given to Crime Stoppers could be eligible for a cash reward.
