4 Bronx Residents Accused Of Stealing From Dick's Sporting Goods

YORKTOWN, NY — Four Bronx residents were accused of stealing merchandise from a sporting goods store in Yorktown.

The Yorktown Police Department said Ashwell S. Giscombe, 26, Devon S. Gordon, 27, Javanie K. Johnson, 25, and Asticia G. Gordon, 30, all of the Bronx, were arrested Friday and charged with fourth-degree grand larceny, a felony. Additionally, Giscombe was charged with third-degree aggravated unlicensed operation, a misdemeanor.

Police said, around 2:30 p.m. Friday, officers were sent to Dick’s Sporting Goods at the Jefferson Valley Mall for a report of thefts in progress.

The officers found a vehicle thought to be involved in the thefts in the parking lot of the mall and conducted a traffic stop on Hill Boulevard.

During an investigation on scene, the four people were identified, police said.

Authorities said the group stole clothing valued at more than $1,700, and Giscombe was driving the car with a license that had been revoked for operating without insurance.

The four were arrested and taken to police headquarters for processing.

Giscombe was arraigned and sent to the Westchester County Department of Corrections to return to the Yorktown Justice Court Tuesday. The other three were issued appearance tickets and were released on their own recognizance to return to court Dec. 14.
