HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Two Hutchinson men have been formally charged in connection with the armed hold up of two convenience stores January 31.
Twenty-year-old Kevon Ford and 21-year-old Trevor McDade each face two counts of aggravated robbery.
The two are accused of the armed hold ups of the 17th and Monroe and the 43rd and Plum Kwik Shop stores. In both cases an armed man using an ice scraper or a hand saw as a weapon made off with either money or tobacco products or both.
The two were arrested when officers arrived in the area of 43rd and Plum located a black male just outside a vehicle identified as a grey 2013 Ford Fusion. The male was similar in appearance to the suspect in both robberies. While speaking with the male, a white male was located in the front driver’s seat of the vehicle. Inside the Fusion, evidence was located associated with the robberies. The car was reported stolen later that morning.
Both men were then taken into custody.
