FAYETTEVILLE -- A man police said helped rob a bank earlier this month has been extradited from Florida to Arkansas, according to jail records.

Lentonio Marcell Jenner, 24, of 343 E. Southern Trace Drive in Rogers was booked into the Washington County Detention Center on Wednesday in connection with accomplice to aggravated robbery. He was arrested Jan. 7 while vacationing in Florida, according to an arrest warrant.

Jenner is among four people Fayetteville police say robbed Arvest Bank at 1113 N. Garland Ave.

Police arrested Britavious Sawyer, 16, Quamirrio Edwards, 19, and Telvondric Haywood, 20, all of Springdale.

Sawyer and Jenner have been charged with accomplice to aggravated robbery, Prosecutor Matt Durrett said Thursday.

Police say Jenner and Haywood walked into the bank about 3 p.m. Jan. 3, brandished guns, demanded money and fled with $13,615, according to the affidavit.

Sawyer acted as a lookout, and Edwards was the getaway driver, police said.

Police think the four suspects were involved in armed robberies at two other banks and two unnamed locations and attempted robberies at three restaurants, according to Jenner's affidavit.

The report didn't have the locations of the crimes.

Johnson and Centerton police have said they are investigating a link between the group and recent bank robberies in their cities. Springdale police also are working with Fayetteville, according to court records.

Jenner was at the jail with $100,000 bail and court date set for Feb. 6, according to the jail log.

Haywood is at the jail with $75,000 in bail. Edwards is being held on $100,000 bail. Both have court dates set for Wednesday, jail records show.

No information was available about Sawyer, who was booked into the Washington County Juvenile Detention Center.
