Three teenagers have been charged in connection with a string of robberies and kidnappings throughout July, including those at Stadium Suites and The Village, The State reports.
Raquan Green, 17, faces charges of armed robbery, kidnapping and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. The court has set a total $75,000 bond. Alongside Green, two unnamed 15-year-old males face charges of robbery, kidnapping and aggravated assault.
Sgt. Brittany Jackamonis with Richland County Sheriff's Department said additional charges are expected, according to The State.
Green had been charged in May with attempted grand larceny and possession of a stolen vehicle, but the charges were dismissed. Assistant solicitor John Steadman said that one of the other suspects charged in connection to the kidnappings and robberies was arrested in connection with these other charges as well.
