Rochester police have made an arrest in a robbery and shooting at a local Tops that dates back to July of this year.
With the help of forensic evidence and eyewitness identification, police arrested Emanuel Inman, 21, of Rochester. He is charged with robbery, criminal possession of a weapon, grand larceny, reckless endangerment, and criminal mischief.
Police said that Inman robbed a man at gunpoint in the parking lot at Tops Friendly Markets on Winton Road in Rochester, July 30. Two Good Samaritans tried to break up that robbery. The couple honked the horn of their SUV in an attempt to help the victim. Police said that Inman then turned and fired two shots at them. One of the people in the car suffered minor injuries.
Inman was arraigned in court Friday. He is scheduled to appear again on November 3. He remains in jail with bail set at $12,000 cash and $36,000 bond.
