http://heraldsun.southernheadlines.com/durham/4-1176716.cfm Man charged in home invasion BY KEITH UPCHURCH : The Herald-Sun kupchurch@heraldsun.com Jun 30, 2009 Bookmark and Share DURHAM -- A sheriff's detective has filed charges against a man in connection with an armed home invasion in which a woman and her infant son were held at gunpoint and robbed. The man, Jose Javier Reyes Marquez, 36, of Weather Hill Circle was charged in warrants obtained Monday by Investigator Tom Mellown of the Durham County Sheriff's Office. Those charges follow his arrest Friday by police, who charged him with committing four armed home invasions within four days in the city last week. In Monday's warrants, Marquez is accused of breaking down a door with another male accomplice at the home off Stoney Creek Circle in Durham County outside the city limits, and taking the mother's purse, its contents and a debit-credit card, Mellown said. He said the stolen credit card was used shortly after the robbery at a nearby convenience store. Mellown said a tire iron was used to force open the door about 10:40 a.m. June 4. He said no one was injured. "We feel confident they have committed other crimes in the area and we are trying to link them to other home invasions,' Mellown said. Mellown's warrants charge Marquez with two counts of first-degree kidnapping, one count of breaking and entering, one count of robbery with a dangerous weapon, financial identity fraud and obtaining property by false pretenses in connection with the June 4 invasion. More arrests are expected and additional charges may be brought against Marquez, Mellown said. |
