Around 3 a.m., Feb. 6, police said, Cooke entered the store at 7955 Tuckerman Lane, nodded to Graham and another employee, then pulled out a handgun and struck the employee in the face with the weapon. Cooke ordered Graham to tie up the other employee and place money from the cash registered into a duffel bag.
Police said Cooke robbed the store again around 1:30 a.m., on Feb. 13.
Cooke was arrested in Las Vegas earlier this month and is awaiting extradition to Maryland.
Police began to suspect Graham after noticing that he was at the store during both stick-ups. He was charged with conspiracy to commit robbery, conspiracy to commit first-degree assault, use of a firearm in the commission of a violent felony and theft.
Allison was charged with obstructing and hindering an investigation.
