Chief Deputy Scott Hall of the sheriff's office said in a statement Terrick Hyman, 17, of Roanoke Rapids, faces charges of robbery with a dangerous weapon, kidnapping, felony conspiracy, assault with a deadly weapon, assault inflicting serious injury and assault by pointing a gun.
Hall said this afternoon robbery is the apparent motive in the case and others, who he declined to immediately name, are also wanted.
The charges stem from a case investigated by Detective D.C. Dickens of the sheriff's office after the victim reported he was robbed of his money and assaulted on Lincoln Street before being driven to another location.
Captain Bobby Martin said in the Roanoke Rapids Police Department's twice-weekly blotter report, Officer Dale Strickland arrested Hyman shortly before 10:45 a.m. after locating him at a residence in the 1000 block of Cedar Street.
Hyman was jailed on $100,000 bond and received a July 27 court date.
Hall said investigation continues.
