Pulaski County deputies arrest 3 in armed robbery of store

Pulaski County deputies on Saturday night arrested three men suspected of robbing a dollar store at gunpoint, according to a police report.

Deputies responded to the Dollar General at 11120 Arch St. after an aggravated robbery was reported at about 9:40 p.m., the report said.

Investigators spoke with witnesses and watched surveillance video that showed two suspects enter the store and rob it while armed with a handgun, the report said.

Two Arkansas State Police troopers stopped a vehicle nearby that matched witnesses' descriptions of the getaway car, the report stated.

They found three men in the car, which authorities said included a driver and the two men captured on surveillance video.

Deputies arrested Perdue Taylor, 22, of North Little Rock; Cedric Stubblefield, 21, of Little Rock; and Ibrahim Quattara, 27, of Alexander.

Deputies found a handgun and an undisclosed sum of cash in the vehicle, the report said.

All three were being held without bail on charges of aggravated robbery at Pulaski County jail Sunday night.

Quattara is in the U.S. on an African passport, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Immigration and Customs Enforcement placed a hold on him, the report said.
