FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. (WNCN) — Fayetteville police say they have captured the last of four suspects who cut off their electronic monitoring devices earlier this year.
The Fayetteville Police Department’s Violent Criminal Apprehension Team called them “violent felons” and said last month that one of the four was still on the run.
Tajae Wakely, 19, cut off his electronic monitoring device in July, police said.
Wakely, who police said Friday had been caught, faces charges of robbery with a dangerous weapon, conspiracy, interfering with electronic monitoring device, and damage to property.
On Oct. 20, Fayetteville police notified the public about the four men who were on the run.

Parker was charged with discharging a weapon into occupied property, conspiracy, possession of a firearm by a felon, discharging a weapon into moving vehicle, interfering with electronic monitoring device, and damage to property. Police said he was arrested on Nov. 9 by members of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Violent Criminal Apprehension Team.
