EAST BRUNSWICK - Police have arrested a suspect in the armed robbery of three people on bicycles last Thursday behind the Pathmark shopping center.
Arizae Halley, 20, of East Brunswick, is charged with three counts of first-degree robbery and is being held at the Middlesex County jail on $100,000 bail.
Police accused Halley of riding a bike up to the victims, pulling out what appeared to be a handgun from his waistband and stealing their cell phones.
"Halley had been stopped in the area the night before but there was not sufficient information to detain him," police Lt. Kevin F. Zebro said in a news release on Monday. "Detectives were able to develop further information including details from the victims and independent witnesses that lead to Halley's arrest."
