Three Arrested in Spring Valley Armed Robbery Involving Scissors

Three suspects, including two juveniles, were arrested following a robbery on March 19 at approximately 6:39 p.m. near 120 South Main Street, according to Spring Valley Police.

Authorities say the victim entered the suspects’ vehicle, where a pair of scissors was held to his throat before his cellphone and about $10 in cash were taken. The suspects also used the victim’s phone to transfer $6 via Cash App before releasing him after he claimed he would retrieve additional funds from his residence, at which point he contacted police.

Police arrested 19-year-old Dennis Osei of New City, along with two 17-year-olds from West Haverstraw and the Bronx. Osei was charged with Robbery in the First Degree (Class B felony), Robbery in the Second Degree (Class C felony), Menacing in the Second Degree (Class A misdemeanor), Criminal Possession of Stolen Property in the Fifth Degree (Class A misdemeanor), and Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Fourth Degree (Class A misdemeanor). He was arraigned and bail was set at $10,000 cash, $25,000 bond, or $35,000 partially secured bond, and he was remanded to the Rockland County Jail.

The two juveniles were each charged with Robbery in the First Degree (Class B felony) and Robbery in the Second Degree (Class C felony), and were arraigned in Youth Part court and released on their own recognizance.

A criminal complaint is an accusation, and all defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. Authorities are asking anyone with information to contact Spring Valley Police.
