A man and woman are accused of luring a man Sunday night to a house in Dayton and holding him at gunpoint and robbing him before stealing his car.

Jamonae Alisia Foster-Jones, 22, and Darrius L. Woods, 24, both of Dayton, are each charged in Dayton Municipal Court with two counts of aggravated robbery and single counts of kidnapping and obstructing official business.

Woods also is charged with two counts of having weapons while under disability and one count each of failure to comply with an order of a police officer, carrying concealed weapon, improper handling of a firearm in a motor vehicle and obstructing official business.

The man said the pair lured him around 10 p.m. Sunday to a house in the 4600 block of Midway Avenue, where Woods had a handgun and that both suspects robbed him of money and other personal property, according to an affidavit.

“While still being armed with a firearm, the suspects forced him into his vehicle against his will and, under threat of serious bodily harm, forced him to go to ATM machines and attempt to withdraw money. The suspects then made the complainant exit the vehicle and they stole the vehicle,” the affidavit stated.

Woods was captured around 3:05 a.m. Feb. 6 after fleeing from Dayton police in the 400 block of Brightwood Avenue in Dayton and then crashing the stolen car into a tree, the document read.

A loaded handgun was found inside the car and Woods was taken to a local hospital for his injuries.

Foster-Jones was arraigned Thursday and is held on $150,000 bail in the Montgomery County Jail.

Woods was arraigned Monday and is held on $250,000 bail in the Montgomery County Jail.
