A Florida man who robbed a Mandeville-area gas station this past summer was located Tuesday morning by the U.S. Marshal’s Service in Florida and taken into custody.
In June, the St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office posted a BOLO on its social media pages asking for the public’s help in identifying an individual who robbed a Mandeville-area gas station at gunpoint.
The ongoing investigation into the robbery led STPSO detectives to obtain warrants for the arrest of Daniel Martinez (DOB 6-27-1996) of Tampa, Fla., one count each of Armed Robbery and one count of being a Felon in Possession of a Firearm.
Tuesday morning, agents with the U.S. Marshal’s Service located Martinez in Polk County, Fla.
He was taken into custody and booked into the Polk County Jail as a fugitive.
He was also wanted by Louisiana State Police on unrelated charges.
