Details of the Charge and Arrest
Brown, of The Leverretts in Birmingham, has been formally charged with a robbery that took place at an unspecified Co-op branch in Birmingham back in July this year.
A spokesperson for West Midlands Police confirmed the details, stating: "We were called to Erdington High Street following reports of a robbery at a shop. Officers from the Skybridge team swiftly attended and arrested a 42-year-old woman."
