LAUDERDALE LAKES, FL – Tips from the public and Broward Crime Stoppers helped Broward Sheriffโ€™s Office robbery detectives identify and arrest an armed robber Saturday evening. According to authorities, on December 17, Broward Sheriffโ€™s Office detectives released surveillance video of a subject who pointed a gun at a Walmart employee while riding past her on a bicycle he stole. Following that media release, tips came in from the public which led detectives to identify and arrest 18-year-old Jarred Frico for armed robbery.

The crime happened shortly before 7 a.m. on Tuesday, November 16, at the Walmart located at 3001 N. State Road 7 in Lauderdale Lakes. As the subject began to exit the store with a Hyperspeed Explorer bicycle worth approximately $372, an employee asked him to show a receipt. Frico replied that he didnโ€™t have a receipt and continued out the door. At that point, the employee stuck out her foot to try to stop him and he subsequently reached into his waistband, pulled out a handgun and pointed it at the employeeโ€™s face, telling her to โ€œget back.โ€
