WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) -- Four suspects are in jail and a fifth is in the hospital after a home invasion overnight in Wilmington.
Police have arrested: Angel Domonique Myers, 18, Jay Jawan Cromartie, 23, Jamaar Tyree Walker, 19, and Michael Alexander Betrand 20.
Police also have warrants for the fifth suspect Jamar Hakeen Gordon, 27, of Leland. Gordon was wounded during the invasion and is now hospitalized.
The suspects face multiple charges, including first degree burglary, attempted armed robbery, second degree kidnapping, conspiracy to commit armed robbery and one charge of firearm by a felon.
Police say the suspects broke into a home at 1901 Colwell Ave. just after midnight. Callers told dispatch they heard a gunshot go off inside the home. When officers arrived they found a shotgun and blood on the floor. Investigators say during the invasion one of the victims shot Gordon. No charges are being filed against the resident.
Investigators received information on the suspect vehicle and tracked the suspects to the intersection of South 16th Street and Robin Hood Lane. Police found four of the suspects in the vehicle with guns. All four suspects are in the New Hanover County Jail.
Judging by the “names” listed, I think it’s fair to say:
“If 0bama had sons...”
One can only wonder about to what tribe these Indians belong.
Almost forgot about this Islamic terrorist.
I know the area, un-good.
Why does it seem to be getting worse?
You would think they would learn.
Too bad the homeowner missed the other four.....
Needs to be broadcast nationwide and repeated frequently like they do other news throughout the day. It might deter some of these thugs from charging into a home....
No charges against the resident? Good thing it didn’t happen in Florida.
Jay Jawan, Jamaar Tyree Jamar Hakeen and Angel Dominique must have been out for a night on the town after a barn raising.
I wonder if Jay Jawan Cromartie is related to the former San Diego Charger and New York Jet Warren Cromartie. Jay Jawan certainly has NFL family values. Maybe Jay Jawan is one of Warren Cromartie’s kids whose names he can’t remember.
How sick is it that the reporter has to mention that the VICTIM won't be charged?
No. You’ve got your folks mixed up.
Jay Jawan is Travation Deland’s third cousin.
well, these were armed when caught, and there was more than one in the cluster. Time to upgrade from a five shot pump to a nice semi-auto 5.56 or AK variant, with thirty round mags.
Why does it seem to be getting worse?
Probably because home invasions by increasingly large gangs is becoming more popular.
You would think they would learn.
If criminals were capable of learning much, they'd learn violent crime is a poorly paid, high risk occupation. White collar crime pays better and involves lower risks, but violent crime is more injurious to criminals than everas well it should be.
Frantically and eratically moving targets are hard to hit.
In that neighborhood, this was in all likelihood just one more variation of a “Drug Deal Gone Wrong.”
Jay, Jawan, Jamar and Jaamar. Seems like the letter “J” was not good to them.
Then add two more “J’s” to their life:
JERKS
JAIL
See, spelling can be fun!
