Warrant: Two guns found in Wendell robbery suspects' getaway car

Both guns matched the weapons the victims described, the warrant states. One of the victims said he was struck in the head and shoulder with a scoped rifle.

Investigators said Marcus Terrel Edrington, Iran Antonio Marcano and another man broke into a home on Fox Run Drive on Jan. 30 and robbed the residents at gunpoint before fleeing in a Jeep allegedly driven by Ethan Jeffery Tyler.

While deputies were on their way to investigate, one of them spotted a Jeep matching the suspect vehicle description. He followed the Jeep while waiting for a backup officer to perform a felony stop, but the driver turned into a parking lot and the men fled on foot.

"Inside the vehicle, in plain view, a handgun and rifle could be seen," the warrant states.

Several eastern Wake County schools were put on lockdown while deputies and K-9 units searched the area. Edrington, Marcano and Tyler were arrested a short time later. The fourth man was not in custody as of Wednesday.

Edrington and Marcano each face charges of second-degree kidnapping, felony breaking and entering, conspiracy to commit robbery with a dangerous weapon and robbery with a dangerous weapon.

Edrington also faces a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon, while Marcano faces an additional charge of second-degree trespassing.

Huff was charged with accessory after the fact to robbery with a dangerous weapon and resisting a law enforcement officer.

All three men were placed in the Wake County jail.
