Broome County Sheriff’s officials say they are each to be charged with felony robbery in connection with the Kirkwood incident.

In that investigation, authorities say a woman who knows the pair said her purse and other items were stolen when she was in a vehicle with Svenson and Griffith and they threatened her with a knife.  The woman fled to a nearby home to report the incident as Svenson and Griffith drove away.
