3 Charged in Armed Robbery of Gold Coast Store

The teen woman and two 20-year-old men face felony charges after detectives found stolen items being sold online

Three people have been charged in the armed robbery of a Gold Coast store last week. 

The teen woman and two 20-year-old men face felony charges after detectives investigating the robbery of a business in the 900 block of North Rush Street last week found stolen items being sold online, police said. 

Nineteen-year-old Tia Jennings was charged with felony armed robbery while the two men, Lawrence Hall and Tishawn Holliday, were charged with felony theft of items valuing $10,000-$100,000. 

The name of the business was not immediately known, but last week authorities said a group of women walked into a Gold Coast designer clothing store and stole 10 purses after threatening to spray an employee with mace. 

Police officers could be seen inside a Christian Dior store.

The women took off southbound on Rush Street with two men in a dark-colored sedan, police said.
