The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office says the third suspect in a string of violent gas station robberies has been arrested after deputies found him hiding under a stairwell at a home in Centerville on Wednesday morning.
Deputies located Dylan Charles Jungwirth, 21, shortly after 11 a.m. at a residence on the 7200 block of Main Street. The people at the home gave investigators permission to search the property, where Jungwirth surrendered without incident, according to the sheriff’s office.
Jungwirth had been wanted in connection with three armed robberies that took place Sunday, Aug. 17, at two Roseville gas stations and one in Little Canada.
Authorities said Jungwirth pressed a gun to the back of a clerk’s head in one of the incidents, and a clerk was assaulted in another.
Two other suspects — Kenneth Spight, 21, and Kemonie Hurd, 18 — were arrested earlier and charged. Jungwirth was also charged but remained at large until Wednesday’s arrest.
Deputies are now submitting an affidavit for a search warrant to recover additional evidence, including the firearm believed to have been used in the robberies.
Sheriff Bob Fletcher said the suspects “terrorized the clerks and struck fear into our communities.”
