3 suspects arrested after T-Mobile store robbery

HENRY COUNTY, Ga. — Three men are now in custody after an armed robbery at a local business.

The robbery led to a chase behind a neighborhood in Henry County.

Surveillance video showed two employees being robbed at gunpoint inside a Griffin T-Mobile store located on North Expressway just after it opened.

Police said the three suspects got away with about $10,000 in cell phones before taking off down the road.

The trio eventually made their way across the county line.

"Henry County police managed to get into a car chase with a black Mercedes Sedan that had these three black male subjects," Colt Tolen, with Griffin Police Department, said.

Investigators said the men crashed their car into a tree between two houses in the Jodeco Station subdivision.

The men ran, but police were hot on their trail.

"A neighbor stopped by and said, 'Lock your doors. Close your garage doors,'" Henry County resident Diane Johnson said.

Johnson said officers were all over the neighborhood, looking behind houses and in the woods.

Clayton County and Henry County were involved in the search and eventually tracked down the men.

All three are now in police custody, although one of them is still in the hospital being treated for a dog bite. Two of the men have been identified as Dexter Boyd and Timothy Ragland.
