Durham Teen Arrested, Charged in Violent Chapel Hill Crimes


“We will not tolerate this violent behavior in Chapel Hill,” said Chapel Hill Police Chief Celisa Lehew.

Dunn faces numerous charges related to both incidents, including two counts of felony conspiracy, two counts of possession of stolen goods/property and robbery with a dangerous weapon. He is being held at the C. A. Dillon Youth Development Center in Butner.

Police say Dunn’s arrest is not the end of the investigation into the incidents. Investigators are still working to identify a person of interest in both cases. He was seen at a gas station in Durham just after the Armed robbery last Thursday.

Anyone with information on the cases is asked to call 911 or to contact the Chapel Hill Police Department at 919-968-2760. Callers who wish to remain anonymous can contact the Chapel Hill-Carrboro-UNC Crimestoppers at 919-942-7515 or visit their website.
