Two men accused of pulling a handgun on a 7-11 clerk and demanding a pack of cigarettes Wednesday were arraigned on armed robbery charges Thursday, police said.
Corey Amison, 23, of Superior Township, and Delrico Perkins, 18, of Ypsilanti Township, were charged with armed robbery and conspiracy to commit armed robbery, according to Sgt. Geoff Fox of the Washtenaw County Sheriff's Office.
Police said the incident happened at the 7-11 located at 2200 East Ellsworth Road in Ypsilanti Township around 2:20 a.m. Wednesday.
The two men went to the store because they were dissatisfied with the price of an item previously purchased. Amison is accused of going into the 7-11, brandishing a handgun and demanding a pack of cigarettes. Police arrested the two men a short time later as they walked down Ellsworth.
Both men are being held in the Washtenaw County Jail on $25,000 cash bonds, police said.
