An 18-year-old man is wanted in connection with an aggravated robbery that occurred Saturday morning in a parking lot at 1416 S. Blake St.

Pine Bluff police identified Zykelon Ginger as a suspect. He is described as a Black male who stands 6 feet tall and weighs 125 pounds.

The robbery victim told police officers he had driven from Lonoke to sell a subwoofer to an individual he contacted through Facebook. Upon meeting the would-be buyer at the location they agreed upon, according to police, a black Mercury Grand Marquis pulled in front of the victim’s vehicle and blocked him in.

The victim told police two Black males exited the Mercury and approached his vehicle. The victim added the males asked if they could test the sound system before purchasing it. A few seconds later, according to police, one of the males produced a long gun and pointed it at the victim, stating the speakers belonged to them.
