Armed Robbery Shakes College Station: Two Young Men Arrested

In an alarming incident that took place this past Saturday afternoon, the College Station Police Department apprehended two local men for an alleged armed robbery that left a victim quite shaken. The suspects, identified as Dremarion Jayshawn Lee, 17, and Jaydorian Keyshawn Booker, 18, both hail from College Station itself. Their bold actions have raised eyebrows and ignited conversations among residents about safety in the neighborhood.

The Details of the Incident

The robbery unfolded around Vassar Ct. just before 4 p.m. when the police received a dispatch call about a robbery in progress. Quick to respond, the officers arrived at the scene and connected with the victim, who had managed to get to safety several blocks away. The victim later shared that he was in talks with Booker via Instagram about purchasing a pair of shoes, leading them to set up a meeting in front of Vassar Ct.

Things took a dangerous turn when the victim arrived at the designated meeting spot. Booker approached the vehicle, asking for Venmo information. It seemed like a routine transaction until Lee charged in on the driver’s side, brandishing an AR-style pistol and pointing it straight at the victim’s face. In a terrifying moment, Lee demanded that the victim “give [him] everything,” leaving the victim with no choice but to comply.

With Lee threatening them, Booker climbed into the passenger side of the victim’s vehicle and snatched cash from the center console. After grabbing the money, Lee instructed the victim to drive away, leaving him in a state of disbelief and fear.

Police Investigation and Arrest

During the police operation, authorities made the decision to relocate nearby residents for their safety. With tensions high, one of the suspects’ parents intervened, encouraging them to exit the apartment. While one suspect complied, the other hesitated for a while. After several attempts to coax him out, he eventually surrendered, and both suspects were taken into custody without any further issues.
