Suspect In Aggravated Robberies Arrested
(WHBC) – The Canton Police Department has apprehended a man accused in a string of robberies at stores and gas stations.
Christopher Tremain Johnson was arrested by Canton police officers and members of the FBI Safe Streets Task Force.
Police say the 42-year-old is responsible for five aggravated robberies between January 3rd and the 5th at two Family Dollars, two Speedways and one Circle K.
