Three men were arrested and accused of posing as Amazon workers to commit a violent home invasion and robbery in North Arlington, the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office said.
Jazmir Carter, 25, of Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, Michael Carter, 26, and Ameer Holcomb, 42, of Newark were charged Friday in the Feb. 21 robbery, the prosecutor’s office stated. The trio posed as Amazon delivery drivers and forced their way into the house after the homeowner opened the door, according to the prosecutor’s office.
They then struck the homeowner with a gun and stole cash, sneakers and jewelry, the prosecutor’s office stated.
Additional details including the extent of the homeowner’s injuries and value of the items taken were not immediately available.
The FBI assisted the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office with the arrest warrants Friday in Newark and Stroudsburg.
The three men face a slew of charged including armed robbery, conspiracy to commit robbery and burglary and weapons offenses. They all remain in custody as of Saturday.
