Overview

• Federal prosecutors announced on August 13 that Daishaun Hughes-Murchison, Brian Wallace and Trayvine Jackson have been charged under the Hobbs Act and federal firearms statutes for the June 21 Brinks truck robbery.
• Law enforcement recovered the bulk of the more than $2 million stolen from the Port Richmond heist and seized multiple AR-style rifles and handguns during the June investigation.
• Court filings reveal that Trayvine Jackson, a former Brinks employee, was suspended and later terminated, fueling theories that insider access facilitated the June robbery.
• On August 12, two armed suspects stole between $700,000 and $800,000 from a Brinks truck outside an H Mart in Elkins Park, fleeing in a black Acura TLX later found abandoned in Fairmount Park.
• The FBI Philadelphia Violent Crimes Task Force, Philadelphia Police and Cheltenham Township police are coordinating efforts to determine whether the recent Elkins Park theft and earlier armored-truck robberies are part of a connected series of attacks.
