Columbia, SC (WLTX) - Three men were arrested in connection to an armed robbery incident this weekend.

Louis Anderson, 43; Xavier Anderson, 27; and Tyrone Cooper, 28, each face armed robbery and kidnapping charges.

Richland County deputies say a car with all three suspects inside approached a man on the 1800 block of Morninglo Lane around 8:35 a.m. August 11.

One suspect reportedly asked for directions, while another got out of the car and pointed a shotgun at the victim demanding him to get on the ground. After the victim complied, the suspect took his phone and two others found in his car.

The victim didn't have the keys to the car, so the suspects fled the scene.

All three are being held at the Richland County Detention Center
