The Chadron Police Department is continuing to investigate an armed robbery at a local business.
"Over the course of several days the Chadron Police Department with the assistance of the Nebraska State Patrol and the Oglala Sioux Tribe OST developed two 'people of interest' related to the armed robbery on Saturday afternoon, Dec. 5," said Tim Lordino, Chadron Police Chief.
On Dec. 8 the female person of interest, 33 year-old Ashley Two Two turned herself into the Sheridan County Sheriff’s Office in Rushville.
Two Two was subsequently arrested for aiding and abetting an armed robbery.
Two Two is currently being held at the Scotts Bluff County Jail on a bond of 10% of $250,000.
"The Chadron Police Department is asking for the public’s assistance in identifying the male suspect in connection to the armed robbery at Cheema’s in Chadron," said Lordino. "If you have any information related to the male or female suspects in the photos below that entered the store around 4:08 p.m. please call the police department at (308) 432-0510 or you can leave an anonymous tip and may be qualified for a cash reward, by calling 1-800-422-1494 or by going online to Nebraska Crime Stoppers and submitting a tip; http://www.nebraskacrimestoppers.com/sitemenu.aspx?ID=450&."
“We continue to ask for the public’s help in identifying the male suspect or anyone else involved in this crime," said Jarvis Wallage, Chadron Police Sgt. "We know the two suspects are local to the regional area and believe there are people in our regional area that know who he is. We believe that he has fled Nebraska and is no longer in the Chadron area. We are also looking for the firearm that was used in the robbery as well as any of the liquor taken from the store. U.S. currency was also taken along with several lighters and cigarettes."
