Man Named Innocent Wanted in Cell Phone Robbery

The Broward Sheriff’s Office is looking for a man named Emmanuel Innocent for his part in the robbery of a man who was selling his cell phone.

Around 7:15 on May 15, deputies responded to the scene of a shooting in the 1200 block of West of Hillsboro Blvd. in Deerfield Beach.

The victim had fired at a group of suspects whom he agreed to meet to sell a cell phone, which he had advertised on Craig’s List.

During the investigation, detectives determined the four suspects held the victim at gunpoint and took him in their vehicle after stealing his phone and money. As the driver slowed to make a turn, the victim jumped out of the vehicle and fired several shots at the car. One of the bullets struck the tire, which disabled the vehicle and the suspects fled on foot.

BSO deputies apprehended Yodilion Jeanty, 23, and Kesnel Kercius, 21, that same night.

The third suspect, Emmanuel Innocent remains at large and is wanted on a warrant for armed robbery with a firearm and kidnapping with a firearm. The fourth suspect has not yet been identified.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Emmanuel Innocent, 22, or this robbery is asked to call Broward Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS.

A reward of up to $3,000 is available for information that leads to an arrest.
