Wright and Crawford were caught sleeping at the time and were arrested without incident.  A large amount of suspected crack cocaine was found on both individuals. Additional charges are pending.  Both individuals are being held without bond at Middle River Regional Jail.

The three victims, a 60-year-old Waynesboro man, a 41-year-old Waynesboro man and a 38-year-old Richmond man, said one of the victims had opened the door to the apartment for a female friend.  As soon as they entered, the assailants forced all three victims on the floor and robbed them of cash and other valuables estimated at $550.

During the course of the robbery, the subjects fired at least two shots.  Other than the 38-year-old victim receiving minor lacerations, there were no injuries.
