21 year old arrested, juvenile petitions filed after man robbed, shot at, Goldsboro police say

GOLDSBORO, N.C. (WNCN) — A man was arrested after he worked with a juvenile to rob someone and shoot a gun at them, the Goldsboro Police Department said Wednesday. Deputies said they worked with Wilson Police to arrest 21 year old Xzavier Mickens on Dec. 28 on the 1900 block of Lipscomb Road in Wilson.

The arrest stems back to an incident that took place on Sept. 9. At about 3:39 p.m. that day, officers said they were called to the 700 block of North Claiborne St. in reference to shots possibly fired. When they arrived, they said they found a 59 year old man that had been robbed by two people. The man said both people shot a gun as they fled the scene, according to the police department.

No injuries were reported. During the investigation, police said they identified Mickens and a juvenile as the two suspects. They filed charged with Wayne County Juvenile Justice on Nov. 2 for robbery with a dangerous weapon. Police said the juvenile was already in custody at the time. The same day, police said they secured a warrant on Mickens for one count of robbery with a dangerous weapon.

Mickens was given a secured bond of $375,000 the day after his Dec. 28 arrest..
