FAYETTEVILLE -- A Rogers man pleaded innocent Friday in the kidnapping and robbery of a Fayetteville couple.

Lentonio Marcell Jenner, 25, was charged with aggravated residential burglary, kidnapping, aggravated robbery, battery and terroristic threatening. He was at the Washington County jail in lieu of $51,000 bond Friday.

According to a police report, Jenner walked to Jerry and Glenda Moore's house on River Meadows Drive, took out a gun and threatened the couple. He forced them to get in their vehicle to drive him to their bank for money, the report said.

Jerry Moore had a gun, fought with Jenner and shot him in the leg, police said. Jenner was pushed out of the Moores' vehicle and later arrested at a hospital, according to the report.

The couple didn't know Jenner, police said.
