ANTWANE CURTIS JONES SENTENCED FOR ROBBERY AND BURGLARY

On March 9, 2017, a Wicomico County Circuit Court Judge sentenced Antwane Curtis Jones, age 33, of Wicomico County, Maryland to serve 52 years in the Department of Corrections, with all but 24 years of that time suspended. Upon release, Jones will be placed on 3 years of supervised probation.

On November 30, 2016, Curtis entered a plea of guilty to three counts of Robbery and one count of Second Degree Burglary. The events that Jones plead guilty to stem from a two week time span where Jones robbed three separate victims and burglarized the Lucky Star in Fruitland, Maryland.

The first crime occurred on April 17, 2016, when Jones broke into the Lucky Star located at 208 N. Fruitland Blvd., Fruitland, Maryland and stole U.S currency which was located within the business. Days later, Jones robbed the Wine Rack, located at 100 W. Cedar Lane, Fruitland, Maryland. In the early morning hours of
April 24, 2017, Jones entered the convenience store and demanded money and cigarettes from the store employee. On April 30, 2017, Jones robbed the Education Supplies Store located at 1506 South Salisbury Blvd, Salisbury, Maryland. Jones approached the store owner as she was leaving her establishment, threw her to the ground and demanded money. The last robbery occurred on May 4, 2016, at the United States Postal Office located at 201 E. Main Street, Fruitland, Maryland. On this date, Jones entered the establishment
wearing a ski mask, jumped over the counter and demanded money from the postal workers. On May 5, 2016, members of the Fruitland Police Department executed a search and seizure warrant on the Defendant’s home and found evidence which linked him to the crimes. Jones was subsequently placed under arrest and has been held at the Wicomico County Detention Center since May 6, 2016.
Wicomico County State’s Attorney Ella Disharoon commended the Fruitland Police Department and the Maryland State Police for their work in these investigations. Mrs. Disharoon also thanked Deputy State’s Attorney Patrizia J. Coletta who prosecuted Jones.
