4 Charged In Immokalee Robbery

Four people were arrested after deputies say they robbed a man at gunpoint in Immokalee on Sunday.

Adrien Apollon, 19, 2915 Dimar Lane, Immokalee; Melissa Crawford, 20, 1159 Cherokee Ave., Lehigh Acres; and Rhonda Crickenberger, 21 and Diego Reyna, 23, both of 1406 North Plum St., Immokalee, all were charged with armed robbery and aggravated assault.

Reports give the following account of what happened:

Crawford and Crickenberger approached the victim, Mario Roberto, 20, as Roberto was walking on Plum Street in Immokalee on Sunday morning. Crawford told Roberto she would have sex with him if he paid her. Roberto and Crawford then walked to an abandoned trailer at 1404 Plum St. Once they were inside, Crickenberger, Reyna and Apollon entered. Apollon and Reyna were armed with handguns. Crawford and Crickenberger left, but Apollon and Reyna held a gun to Roberto’s head then hit him in the head, knocking him to the ground. They then took his wallet and ran from the trailer.

Roberto was able to lead deputies to 1406 North Plum St. where all four were located.
