Police have arrested a second man who allegedly took part in holding a mother and toddler at gunpoint -- at one point pointing the weapon at the 3-year-old's head -- in the lobby of their New York City apartment building.
Wagner Argamonte was arrested and charged with robbery on Thursday in connection to the March 9 robbery in Kingsbridge Heights, according to police. The 22-year-old Argamonte's arrest comes just over a month after Carlos Guzman was arrested for his role in the incident as well. Guzman, 23, faces robbery and weapon possession charges.
Officials said that the mother and toddler were inside their Bronx building, near Sedgwick Avenue and West Kingsbridge Road around 8:20 a.m. when Argamonte and Guzman allegedly flashed a firearm. First, the pair pointed the gun at the torso of the 35-year-old mother, then pointed it at her son's head, according to police.
