Four suspects, Yire Abreu, 24, Jarol Ledesma, 22, Angel Carrasco, 21, and Wilfred Mordan, 21, were arraigned in Lawrence District Court following their arrest for a jewelry store robbery in North Andover, Massachusetts, on July 3. They face multiple charges, including armed and masked robbery and possession of a firearm during a felony. The suspects, who were captured after a police chase that led them from North Andover to Interstate 495, were discovered hiding in a wooded area by local law enforcement. Essex County District Attorney Paul Tucker confirmed they are being held without bail. Two additional suspects remain at large as authorities continue their investigation.

The court has scheduled a detention hearing for the four suspects on July 14. This incident underscores the ongoing issue of armed robberies in the region, prompting increased law enforcement vigilance. The case highlights both the dangers faced by jewelry store owners and the swift response of local police forces in apprehending suspects.
