Suspect Admits Involvement in Two Robbery Attempts

(Green Township, Hamilton County, OH)--A suspect in Tuesday's robbery of the First Financial Bank on Harrison Ave. was arrested Friday.

Marcus D. Jackson, 39, was arrested after another robbery at the Dollar Tree, 5975 Colerain Ave. In that attempted robbery, Jackson allegedly came into the store, and demanded money.  A weapon was implied.

The clerk was unable to give the suspect any money, and he eventually left the store without taking anything. He left in a red Pontiac Grand Am.

Cincinnati police spotted the car on southbound I-75.  The vehicle was stopped, and Jackson was taken into custody. 

Investigators questioned Jackson, who admitted involvement in both robberies.

Jackson is charged with one count of aggravated robbery and one count of robbery.

Anyone with additional information on either of these crimes is asked to call Crimestoppers at 352-3040.
