The Council Bluffs Police Department reported Friday, four Council Bluffs residents had been arrested and charged with first-degree robbery in connection with a Nov. 4th robbery at a convenience store. Three suspects – including the man the Council Bluffs Police Department believes entered Casey’s General Store at 701 32nd Ave., with a gun – were arrested Friday in Council Bluffs. Another alleged accomplice was arrested in Omaha.

In a Press Release, Bluffs Police Sgt. Dave Dawson said 28-year old Markis Davis is suspected of carrying a .22-caliber, semi-automatic pistol – which police have recovered – into the Casey’s at around 8:30 p.m. on Nov. 4th. After displaying the gun and demanding money from the clerk, he reportedly fled the scene with an undisclosed amount of cash.

Dawson said an investigation revealed three additional alleged accomplices.  23-year old William Jones, 28-year old Gregory Lewis, and 21-year old Stasha Cannon, were all arrested Friday, on first-degree robbery charges.
