According to a news release from the city of Boulder, police have arrested three men in connection with a robbery at the Pi Beta sorority on Oct. 1, 2017.

Ronald Brantley, age 24; Clyde Drexter George, age 19; and a juvenile male have been charged with aggravated robbery, felony menacing, first-degree criminal trespass and theft. The two adults are currently in custody at the Weld County Detentions Division as suspects in a robbery that occurred in Erie, Colorado, on the same evening.

At approximately 10 p.m. Oct. 1, officers were dispatched to the Pi Beta Phi sorority house, 890 11th St., in response to a robbery that had just occurred. 

Three females were sitting in a vehicle outside the house when they were approached by three males wearing dark clothing who had either bandanas or ski masks covering their faces. The males opened the front and rear passenger doors of the vehicle. One was holding a black handgun and yelled at the women to get out of the car. 

All of the women exited the vehicle and ran from the scene. One suspect was seen inside the car, and shortly afterward all the suspects fled westbound on foot. No one was injured during the robbery.
