OAKLAND – One suspected fraternity house bandit was arrested early on Saturday morning, while his suspected accomplice remains at large.
Oakland police arrested 18-year-old Kameron Robinson-Tom of Oakland at 8:20 a.m. on February 11, acting on a warrant issued by the Berkeley Police Department.
Robinson-Tom is charged with robbery and committing or attempting a felony with a firearm during a party last year at the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity house, located at 2324 Piedmont Avenue, in Berkeley. The suspect is being held at Santa Rita Jail for $375,000 bond.
Berkeley police said Robinson-Tom confessed to robbing three victims who were playing a drinking game at 2:45 a.m. on September 4, and that he also confessed to committing other robberies. A pre-trial court hearing is scheduled for February 23.
The robbery victims told Berkeley police that one of the suspects brandished a handgun, while his accomplice demanded they hand over their personal possessions, before both suspects fled through a backdoor.
One of the victims told Berkeley police that the two suspects had been attending the fraternity house party earlier the same evening.
