SALISBURY — A jailed 23-year-old man faces new charges in connection with a robbery last year.
Jesse Allen Redding, who’s currently in Piedmont Correctional Institution, was charged Tuesday with one count of financial card theft and three counts of obtaining property by false pretenses.
His charges are tied to a robbery on Nov. 17 in which a Gold Hill man was robbed of a smartphone, money and a debit card. There were three charges on the debit card the same day of the robbery, with one of them listing Redding’s name, according to the Rowan County Sheriff’s Office.
Redding and two others were arrested in connection with the robbery. The Sheriff’s Office said Redding was arrested Nov. 18 after a vehicle chase. The most recent charges were presented to a magistrate Monday, with the warrants served Tuesday.
