North Las Vegas Police arrested a man about 8:15 p.m. Monday after a short chase following a holdup in a restaurant, one of a string of robberies police suspect him of committing.
A special robbery detail arrested 30-year-old Garrad Rydell as he ran to the back of Quiznos Restaurant, 6360 Aliante Parkway, where a getaway vehicle was parked, police said.
A man entered the restaurant and held a cashier at gunpoint, then stole money from the cash register, police said.
Police in North Las Vegas suspect that Rydell robbed the same Quiznos on Oct. 13 and a Quiznos at 5515 Camino Al Norte on Oct. 20.
Rydell was taken to the North Las Vegas Detention Center where he was booked on charges including three felony counts of robbery with a deadly weapon, three felony counts of burglary with a deadly weapon and one felony count of first-degree kidnapping, North Las Vegas Police said.
In addition, Rydell will face several more charges by Metro Police for robberies he is believed to have committed at Las Vegas businesses, such as Kinko's and other retail businesses, police said.
Police believe that Rydell allegedly began robbing business clerks at gunpoint in mid-July, preying on store-front shops almost twice a week. In one case in North Las Vegas, Rydell is suspected of forcing a clerk into a backroom at gunpoint and holding him against his will, police said.
North Las Vegas Police formed a special detail on Oct. 27 when they noticed a pattern and the violence during the robberies was escalating. North Las Vegas and Metro Police worked together in the case.






America's Dumbest! He risked all those lives for less that he could have earned in a week working in any of the places he robbed.
I ask you, how dumb is he?
what's really sad is some liberal will fight to get this guy back on the streets as soon as possible.
liberals love criminals, but hate wealthy people.
it's really sad.
Thats a ridiculous comment stevem. It doesn't have to be a "liberal" who will get this guy back on the streets.
The law says that someone has to defend him or be appointed to defend him (of course, he can choose to refuse counsel). Don't assume that just because someone is defending the person, doesn't mean the person is a liberal, he/she just has a job he/she was sworn to do.
I agree that the guy is an idiot, will probably be found guilty and thrown in the slammer, but don't be an idiot yourself and post a farfetched comment to further decrease your I.Q.
liberals are the reason child molesters are released back onto the streets only to kill a child.
every time you vote democrat, you help kill a child.
Who would have guessed that Charlie Manson's son had a thing for Quiznos!
Stevem
You need some serious psychiatric counseling
Ok, rejco100, I find some humor in some of the rantings you post, and a little truth too.
But your most recent would indicate you are somewhere between slightly delusional and outright crazy.
Ever heard of Vincent Bugliosi?
nope. i just speak the truth.
does the "t" in "tvegas" stand for "transvestite"?
Used to play hockey with this guy a long time ago. Very surreal to see what drugs and a horrible job market can do to people and what paths they take to cope. As far as Manson goes, that was NOT a hype machine! The family members all stated what the plan was before hand and admitted to everything. It was in no way something the "media" made up.
Put a turban on him and presto; Jihad on Quizno's.
What does it take to get a razor cut in Vegas?
thats sure a long time in prison for not alot of money...have fun dude...low rent criminal....should of robbed banks with a note you would of got less time
he must have been fired from quiznos why would he pick that place to rob he was better off going into a casino he would get the same amount of time.Some people are just desprate I guess..
He better get rid of that beard before he goes to the big house.. To all those massive convicts in there that havent seen a woman in years, a hairy face feels a lot like something else.
I thought Charles Manson was still in prison?
