RENO — State troopers have arrested three suspects in an armed robbery at a Best Buy in Carson City.
The troopers stopped the suspects' car in Reno near U.S. Interstate 580 on Monday just eight minutes after the robbery was reported in Carson City, the Nevada Highway Patrol said Tuesday.
They took the three Nevada men into custody and recovered a black-handled revolver and two laptop computers, the patrol said Tuesday.
Roderick Soriano, 36, Fracisse Tiongco, 40, both of Reno, and Benjamin Calderon, 46, whose hometown was not released, were being held Tuesday in the Washoe County jail in Reno without bail.
All three were charged with possession of stolen property and conspiracy to commit burglary.
Calderon, a backseat passenger in the vehicle, also was charged with two counts of robbery with a deadly weapon and failure to obey a court order.
Soriano also was charged with driving under the influence. Tiongco also was charged with two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia and failure to obey a court order.
Jail records don't indicate whether they have lawyers or will be appointed legal representation at a pending court appearance.
