Four suspects in two armed robberies in their own town are accused of the same crime in another city.
Kinston police announced last week that five men ages 16 to 20 were charged for armed robberies outside the Kmart on North Queen Street on July 17, and outside the Walgreens on North Herritage Street two days later.
Greenville police records show, on the same day of the North Herritage Street hold-up, four of the five suspects charged in Kinston were arrested for robbing two people at gunpoint at a home on West 3rd Street in Greenville.
The suspects in the Greenville case are Senjen Jones, Christian Russell, Shakeer Patrick and Raiquan Kornegay. It's not clear from police records at this hour whether a fifth suspect in the Kinston cases is also charged in the 3rd Street hold up.
