US Attorney: 7 Oklahomans responsible for Arkansas gem heist

     LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) – A federal prosecutor says seven Oklahomans were
involved in a bold but quick 2015 jewelry store robbery in Little Rock,
including two men arrested Monday.
     U.S. Attorney Chris Thyer said Tuesday that 27-year-old Quinshod Shaw was
arrested in Norman, Oklahoma, while 29-year-old Darris Denton was served with a
warrant at a prison in Stringfield, Oklahoma. Both men are from Oklahoma City
and have not yet had a court appearance in Arkansas. Five others were arrested
previously, and two have pleaded guilty.
     The robbers smashed numerous display cases in a matter of minutes, then
abandoned their getaway truck at a church a block away. Blood recovered from
glass shards led investigators to a suspect who has pleaded guilty, while DNA
recovered from a hat in the abandoned truck led to another.
