Conway police have charged Eric Lynch, 19, with Armed Robbery, Kidnapping, Possession of a Weapon During the Commission of a Crime and Possession of a Pistol by Certain Persons Unlawful.

Police say he and another man robbed the store clerk at the Church Street Sav-Way on April 13th.

The clerk told police the men came into the store around 1:45 a.m. armed with handguns.

Police say Lynch and the other suspect forced the clerk to open the register, took money, and then forced the clerk and a customer into the cooler.

Judge Jane Mackey denied bond for Lynch Thursday morning.

Warrants have been issued for the other suspect.
