Text: On May 8, 2010, the men robbed another T-Mobile store in Detroit, Michigan. As with the previous robberies, Richardson coordinated the logistics and provided masks, gloves, laundry bags, and guns. As before, the men drove in a different stolen van while Richardson followed behind in his SUV. When they arrived at the store, they noticed a woman struggling to open the door. In order to assess the situation, Richardson went to the door pretending to be a customer. An employee informed him that the store was experiencing a power outage and was closed. Richardson decided to proceed with the robbery, and the men convinced Shirley to go to the door without a mask, pretending to be a customer, in order to gain access to the store. As soon as the employee opened the door to speak with Shirley, Shirley pushed the door open and commanded the employees to go to the back of the store. Andrews and Derrick Bivens then entered the store as well. During the course of the robbery, an employee approached the store from the outside, noticed Bivens stealing money from the cash register, and ran away. Upon seeing the employee, the robbers ran to the van and drove off. They eventually met to place their guns in a compartment in Richardson’s SUV, and Richardson sold the phones and distributed the proceeds.
