Four Ohio men charged in fairgrounds robbery

Four Ohio Men are facing various criminal charges after an incident at the St. Joseph County Fairgrounds in Michigan early Monday.

Samuel Davis, Corderrius Cook, Robert Howe, and John Gregory are charged with two counts of robbery, one count of breaking and entering, one count of abduction, one count of kidnapping, one count of larceny from a building, and one count of possession of a firearm.

Around 7:35 a.m. on Monday, police were called after several vendors at the St. Joseph County Fairgrounds were robbed at gunpoint and tied up. They freed themselves and called 911.

The four Ohio men were arrested after a St. Joseph County deputy stopped their car for a traffic violation and recognized their description from the incident at the Fairgrounds.

The deputy called for backup and was assisted by troopers from the Coldwater post and officers from the Colon and Sturgis police departments.
