Delaware Police Accuse 3 Of Faking Robbery

DOVER, Del. (AP) -- Police in Delaware have arrested one man and obtained warrants for another man and woman accused of faking the robbery of a cash advance business in Rehoboth.

Police say they were called to the business Thursday for the report of a robbery. One of the employees, Tiffani Dunn, told police that the store had been robbed by a male suspect.

Police later learned, however, that the suspect was an acquaintance of the victim and that he, Dunn and Dunn's boyfriend, Robert White, had conspired to fake the
robbery and split the proceeds. The three live together in a house in Millsboro.

The suspect in the robbery, Olin Vickers (pictured above), was arrested and charged with theft and conspiracy. Police have obtained arrest warrants for Dunn and White.
