CAPITOL HEIGHTS, Md. (WJZ) -- Prince George's County detectives arrested and charged a man in connection to an armed robbery on January 6 in Capitol Heights.
The man is identified as 33-year-old Jermall West of the 1500 block of Nova Avenue.
West is charged with armed robbery and related charges.
He is in the custody of the Prince George's Corrections Department and is being held with no bond.
Officers responded outside of a business in the 6700 block of Walker Mill Road on Jan. 6 at 10:30 a.m. for a reported armed robbery.

The man and West did not know each other, police said.
