Erie police are searching for Tone M. Husband, a 16-year-old, following an alleged armed robbery. Two teenage girls reported that Husband, after being asked for a ride, pulled a gun on them and demanded their money. The incident occurred shortly after Christmas, with the girls claiming they feared for their lives during the ordeal.

Husband faces charges including robbery, carrying a firearm without a license, and possession of a firearm prohibited. Jarron D. Troop, 19, was also charged with conspiracy to commit robbery and is out on bond. The girls reported around $1,950 total was stolen. Under Pennsylvania law, Husband is being charged as an adult.

The case underscores the severity of the alleged crime, with the potential for serious legal consequences for the accused. The Fisher Bill allows juveniles accused of violent crimes to be tried as adults. Preliminary hearings are scheduled for February, providing further updates on the legal proceedings and potential outcomes for those involved.
