DeKalb cops hope robbing crew busted


Published on: 08/09/08

DeKalb County police may have shut down a robbing crew that has hit as many as 20 businesses, including three Family Dollar stores.

The investigation turned Friday with an armed robbery call to an AutoZone store on Covington Highway. Two of six teenagers, Devontae Patridge, 18, and Dexter Lovelace, 17, were arrested shortly after and that led to the other four, police said Saturday.

Maurice White, 17, and a 16-year-old and two 15-year-old boys, who were not identified because of their ages, were picked up.

Multiple armed robbery charges are pending against all six.
