On Saturday, October 24, 2020 at about 10:15pm, members of the Forney Police Department were dispatched to a local Dollar General Store in reference to an Aggravated Robbery that had already occurred. Two black males armed with handguns forced entry into the store, taking cash from the register. One suspect removed children from a vehicle in the parking lot and forced them inside the store. A single shot was fired into the ceiling by one of the suspects. No injuries were reported, and Forney Police Investigators have been working with other law enforcement jurisdictions who have recently experienced similar offenses. On Thursday November 12th Detectives with the Forney Police Criminal Investigations Divisions identified the two suspects and obtained arrest warrants for:
Dixon, Phillip Deleon Anthony
21yoa 2 counts of Aggravated Robbery, each a 1st Degree Felony
Oliver, Mario Lasonte Jr.
17yoa 2 counts of Aggravated Robbery, each a 1st Degree Felony
Dixon is currently in the Collin County Jail where he will be served his warrants. Oliver is still at large. If anyone has any additional information about this or any other incident, please contact the Forney Police Department Criminal Investigations Division at 972-564-7607. You can also leave information anonymously at Kaufman County Crime Stoppers at 877-847-7522 or at http://kaufmancountycrimestoppers.org/ and if that information leads to an arrest, a reward could be granted to the caller.
