A man was arrested Wednesday in Washington, D.C., in connection with a half-million-dollar armored-truck robbery in Clinton, a case that Prince George's County detectives say netted more than $500,000. Investigators said the suspect will be brought to Maryland to face armed-robbery and related charges.
Prince George's County police identified the suspect as Jerronta Bryant, who is charged with armed robbery and other counts, according to DC News Now. He was taken into custody in the District on Wednesday and remained held there as prosecutors work through the extradition process, police said.
The heist unfolded just before 8:30 a.m. on Nov. 3, 2025, outside a Navy Federal Credit Union in the 8800 block of Woodyard Road in Clinton, where multiple suspects reportedly forced their way into an armored truck and escaped with cash. Authorities said the driver was hurt during the robbery, and investigators have been reviewing surveillance video and other leads, as reported by The BayNet.
Arrest and evidence
During Bryant's arrest, officers recovered a firearm, though investigators have not yet determined whether it is the same weapon used in the November holdup, DC News Now reported. Police described the case as very much active and again urged anyone with information to contact detectives.
Reward, tips and next steps
Prince George's County Police are offering a reward for information that leads to the arrest and indictment of additional suspects. Anyone with tips is asked to call the Robbery Unit at 301-516-2830 or Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS. Investigators continue to comb through video and witness statements while they prepare charges in Maryland, according to FOX5 DC.
Pattern of armored-truck hits
Armored-truck robberies have drawn increasing attention across the region in the past year, from broad-daylight ambushes to lengthy prison terms in nearby cities. Local coverage and federal filings point to growing interagency teamwork whenever big cash heists cross jurisdictional lines, as highlighted in inside job armored truck heists.
Legal stakes
Under Maryland law, robbery with a dangerous weapon is a felony that can bring up to 20 years in prison, according to the Maryland statute. Federal charges under the Hobbs Act, which covers robbery or extortion that affects interstate commerce, are also a possibility in sizable, organized armored-truck cases, the U.S. Attorney's Manual explains.
Anyone with information about the Clinton robbery is asked to contact the Prince George's County Robbery Unit at 301-516-2830 or submit tips anonymously through Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS. Authorities say they plan to release additional details as the investigation and extradition efforts move forward.
