The probable cause statement for Lomax reads: On July 6, 2022, Victim was jogging in a park when co-Defendant Lillard approached the Victim and asked for a lighter. The Victim stopped jogging and the co-Defendant grabbed the Victim’s neck with both forearms from behind. The Victim could not breathe. The co-Defendant said, “Just let it go, she got a gun on her.” The Victim then saw a woman, Defendant Lomax, nearby with her left hand in a satchel slung over her shoulder. The co-Defendant reached into the Victim’s front pocket and removed the Victim’s keys. The Victim then lost consciousness because he could not breathe. The Victim awoke on the ground and saw the co-Defendant and Defendant running toward the Victim’s vehicle. The co-Defendant entered the driver seat and the Defendant entered the passenger seat. They both fled from the park in the Victim’s vehicle. The Victim identified both the Defendant and co-Defendant. Post Miranda, Defendant Lomax admitted being in the park.
The probable cause statements for Lillard reads: On June 16, 2022, Victim was walking in the park with his small son. The Defendant approached with his hand in his pocket and said to the Victim, “Come on bro, take it off, don’t do it, give me all your shit.” The Defendant reached into his pocket multiple times, which led the Victim to believe the Defendant had a firearm.

The Defendant and female then ran to the Victim’s vehicle and stole the Victim’s vehicle. The Victim identified the Defendant in a photo line-up.
