Maricopa police have found and arrested the man they suspect of staging an armed robbery at an Alterra home one month ago.

Police yesterday arrested 20-year-old Keyaun Christian at his home on Bowlin Road. He lived just a half-mile from where the robbery took place Aug. 29.

According to police, officers were dispatched just before 10 p.m. after a man reported being robbed at gunpoint while attempting to sell $450 worth of clothing through Facebook Marketplace. The victim told officers he agreed to meet with an unknown seller in front of a nearby home at 9:30 p.m.

When the 911 caller arrived at the meetup spot and went to retrieve the clothing from his car, an unknown man pushed a handgun against the victim’s left side and took the clothing. The man allegedly fled on foot.
