“Trio Arrested in Armed Robbery; Florence Police have arrested Three Florence Residents After A Reported Armed Robbery Friday Morning. Raven Devon Wallace, 19, of Florence, Thomas Edward Wallace, III, 22, of Florence, and Derrick Lawson Keenum, 23, of Florence, were arrested late Friday after speaking with investigators. The trio are accused of robbing a man of his wallet while assaulting him on South Eclipse Street Friday morning. Florence Police responded to a reported robbery shortly after 2 am. The victim told police that he was assaulted and robbed by two men after he responded to an internet message to meet a female at an East Florence home. Investigators believe that the female lured the man to the home where he was robbed. The victim was treated for his injuries at a local hospital and was later released. The three suspects in this case were arrested without incident Friday and booked in the Lauderdale County Detention center where they were being held on $50,000 bond (each) early Saturday morning. It is alleged that one of the males threatened the victim with a gun during the robbery.”
