Overview
- Federal prosecutors unsealed Hobbs Act robbery and firearm charges against Daishaun Hughes-Murchison, Brian Wallace and Trayvine Jackson for the June 21 Port Richmond Brinks truck theft.
- Authorities recovered most of the more than $2 million haul and multiple firearms in early August, and Trayvine Jackson has been ordered detained while the other two await detention hearings.
- Cheltenham Township police say two armed suspects took between $700,000 and $800,000 from a Brinks truck outside an H-Mart on August 12, and they remain at large.
- Surveillance video shows masked robbers disarming the driver, grabbing a cash-filled bag and fleeing in a black Acura TLX before abandoning it in Fairmount Park.
- The FBI, U.S. Attorney’s Office and several local departments have formed a joint task force to determine whether the Elkins Park robbery is tied to a string of armored-vehicle attacks since June.
