Robbed at Gunpoint<\/h2>\n
The case stems from a Feb. 3, 2021 incident, when Young and other defendants, identified by prosecutors as Anthony Hebron, also known as “Pain,” Darius Lawrence Young, also known as “Mup,” and Lamar Perkins allegedly played a role in the robbing and assault of the victim at gunpoint after getting him to travel to Washington, DC.<\/p>\n
Anthony Hebron and Darius Lawrence Young have pleaded guilty in the case, too.<\/p>\n
The lure was that they would arrange for him to meet women.\u00a0They stole approximately $6,000 and other items from him, prosecutors said.<\/strong><\/p>\nThe bandits agreed to share the proceeds from the robbery.<\/p>\n
Casino Chips Stolen<\/h2>\n
Among the items robbed were at least $1,500 in MGM Casino chips, officials added. It is unclear if the incident involved an MGM gaming property.<\/p>\n
The victim also suffered a wound on his forehead, cuts on his mouth and eye, and a broken nose during the robbery. At one point in the scheme,\u00a0 Christopher Young threatened if the victim \u201cgets feisty, I don\u2019t want to have to crush him,\u201d prosecutors revealed.<\/p>\n

The robbers initially met the victim at the Maryland casino, and he willingly sat down in a car with them. Once in Washington, a suspect pulled out a firearm and pointed it at the victim. The robbers then stole a cellphone, wallet, and hotel room key. The bandits got violent after the victim refused to provide a code for a room safe at an unnamed hotel. Eventually, he told them the code after he was struck in the forehead with the firearm.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Young and another suspect later forced the victim to accompany them to a boiler room of an apartment building. The victim was once again assaulted. They also threatened to kill him. Later, the suspects fled the boiler room, with the victim remaining there.<\/p>\n

Young allegedly told the victim: \u201cIf the police come, or anything come, I got your address. Mom \u2026 your little brother, all them is gone,\u201d prosecutors said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
