BATON ROUGE, LA (WAFB) -
A
19-year-old faces charges in connection with two armed robberies in Baton
Rouge, but charges in others may be pending.
The East
Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office said Daniel Green was arrested Tuesday on
two counts of armed robbery and one count of aggravated battery.
The battery
charge was related to a clerk being pistol-whipped during one of the robberies.
Deputies
added more charges may be pending from the Baton Rouge Police Department.
They
reported he confessed to four robberies.
EBRSO said
Green was pulled over Monday evening for a traffic stop on Gardere Lane.
According
to reports, deputies saw a black BB pistol on the floorboard of the vehicle.
Investigators
said the gun looked very similar to one used in two recent armed robberies at
the Cracker Barrel on Burbank Boulevard.
They said
he also closely resembled the suspect seen on surveillance video robbing the
store.
Authorities
said Green was cited for several traffic violations and released.
However,
detectives met with him at home Tuesday and questioned him. They said after he
was advised of his rights he admitted to committing the Cracker Barrel
robberies on Oct. 16 and Nov. 17.
They said
he also told them he was the person responsible for two other robberies at
convenience stores. BRPD is currently investigating those crimes.
Investigators
said Green gave them permission to search his home and they reported finding
several pieces of clothing worn during the robberies.
Green was
booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.
Bond
information was not released by authorities.
