19 year old Mason Peet is in custody in Becker County. Authorities arrested him shortly after midnight without incident.
Peet and another man are accused of robbing this Stop-N-Go on 23rd Street South early Wednesday. No one was hurt. The suspects fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.
Local and federal authorities swarmed this Fargo apartment Friday afternoon to look for the pair. They even threw a flash bomb. Police didn't find the suspects, but did evidence. That investigation led authorities to Peet, two counties away from the crime.
Jason Nelson of the Fargo Police Dept. says, "We continue on our investigation it is not closed by any means since we have the suspect in custody. We are still looking into many things involving the Stop N Go robbery and many robberies."
Police are still looking for 40 year old Steve Gibson. He's 6-foot-4, 200 pounds with brown eyes and black hair. If you have any information, call police.
