Three more charged in Facebook robbery in Suffolk

SUFFOLK

Three people were arrested Thursday as part of the Facebook robbery scam that took place earlier this week.

A 16-year-old Windsor girl was previously arrested, police spokeswoman Debbie George said.

The girl had been chatting with a 24-year-old Chesapeake man on Facebook when she lured him to a Suffolk home and, with three accomplices, robbed the man of his wallet, cell phone and tools from his truck, George said.

The girl is being held at the Tidewater Detention Home.

On Thursday, police arrested Bruce Dignard Jr., 18, Bradley Scott Sordelet, 25, and a 16-year-old boy, whose name was not released because of his age. The girl also remains unidentified.

George said Dignard, of the 9300 block of Cutthru Road in Windsor, turned himself in to police.

Sordelet, who lives in the 4200 block of Coffman Blvd. in Chesapeake, was arrested after police received a tip that he was in Chesapeake, George said. He was arrested without incident during a traffic stop.

Both of the men, charged with using a gun in a felony and conspiracy, are being held without bond in the Western Tidewater Regional Jail.

The 16-year-old boy is being held at the Tidewater Detention Home.
