RED SPRINGS, N.C. — The Hoke County Sheriff's Office has charged three people in connection with a home invasion Thursday afternoon at a Red Springs home, investigators said Tuesday.

Authorities say two people forced their way into a home on Paxton Loop, assaulted a man, restrained a woman and stole several items from the home after threatening the couple.

Sammy Bartley, 17, of 237 Nantucket Road, Shannon, was arrested Saturday on charges of robbery with a dangerous weapon, first-degree kidnapping, second-degree kidnapping, felony breaking and entering, assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy to commit armed robbery.

He was jailed in the Hoke County Detention Center under a $500,000 secure bond.

Porscha Lynn Clark, 25, of 585 Hezekiah Roard, Pembroke, and Caleb Jones, 18, of 43 Karow Drive, Shannon, were both arrested Monday in the case. It's unclear what charges they face.

Clark was jailed under a $500,000 secured bond. Jones, a convicted felon, had a handgun on him at the time of his arrest and was jailed under a $1 million secure bond.

Authorities said more charges and arrests are possible.
