Andrew Trayvon Hale, 27, who used to live in Bowie, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison with an additional three years of supervised release by the federal court. This comes after his involvement in 11 armed robberies, one of which involved the discharge of a firearm. The US Attorney’s Office for the District of Maryland reported this.
Hale and his accomplice, Antoine Javon Hare, instilled fear in convenience stores during a spree that took place from June 19 to July 23, 2022. According to federal prosecutors, each robbery involved the use of at least one firearm.
The duo’s crime spree came to a halt when officers from the Prince George’s County Police Department, along with a Guardian helicopter, successfully tracked down their vehicle after their last heist.
The pursuit came to a crashing halt in DC as the driver lost control, bringing a high-speed chase to an end. Authorities reported that firearms and proceeds from at least one robbery were recovered by the officers.
Hare, who was charged with the same offenses, recently entered a guilty plea and is scheduled to be sentenced on March 27, 2025.
