Three charged in Chocolay Township robberies

MARQUETTE, MI--   Officials have released the names of three suspects in several armed robberies in Marquette and Delta Counties. 

Tristen Snow, 17, Jaccob Jones, 18, and Jordan Steinhausen, 22, all of Escanaba face five felony counts each:  four counts of armed robbery and one count of attempted armed robbery.  They were arraigned Wednesday in Marquette County District Court.

Two of the men are accused of threatening the clerk at America’s Best Value Inn in Chocolay Township with a knife and demanding money on Tuesday morning.  They allegedly fled to Kassel’s Korner gas station and robbed people there.

Escanaba Public Safety officers say the three men are also suspected of robbing a clerk at the Quality Inn and Suites on Monday.  They have not yet been charged in Delta County.

Each remains lodged in the Marquette County Jail on $1 million bonds.

A probable cause hearing is set for August 30.
