Shelton Police Make Second Arrest In Downtown Robbery

Shelton police have arrested a 41-year-old Ansonia man for his alleged role in a knife-point robbery this month. 

Police charged Robert Robo” Robinson Wednesday with first-degree robbery, conspiracy to commit first-degree robbery, and fourth-degree larceny. 

Police said Robinson and Derby resident Faijoli Brooks entered an elderly man’s downtown apartment on Oct. 13 and robbed him after threatening him with a knife. 

Police arrested Brooks on Monday, and charged her for the incident as well as an alleged car theft. 

Robinson was held on a $100,000 bond, and was scheduled to be arraigned at Superior Court in Derby on Thursday. 

Police said they do not expect any more arrests for the robbery.
