Ditalion Barnett, 27, allegedly entered the convenience store while wearing a face mask around 8 p.m. located at 572 S. York St., according to prosecutors. Barnett grabbed a Snapple, approached the register, displayed a gun and told the clerk “give me everything,” officials said.
The clerk refused to comply and Barnett then told the employee “I’m going to shoot you.”Â
Investigation revealed Barnett and Moore allegedly planned the robbery two days prior.
“In DuPage County, we will not stand for the type of violent gun crime alleged in this case,” DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin said in a statement. “This type of criminal behavior has no place in society and will be met with the full force of the law. We are all thankful that the clerk, who was just trying to make an honest living, was not physically harmed. “
