A suspect in a recent robbery has been cleared of all charges in what police are calling a case of mistaken identity. According to Springfield Police Chief David Thompson, “We immediately had him released from jail the minute our investigation revealed that he was not connected to the crime.”

Thompson went on to say that unfortunately  eyewitness identifications are sometimes imperfect and sometimes the wrong people get identified. If and when we identify these things we fix them as quickly as we can. Sometimes these things happen, it’s part of an imperfect system dealing with imperfect people that sometimes pick out the wrong people as suspects. We continue our investigation long after an eyewitness identification and in this case our investigation cleared Vontez Gardner of any connection in this case. FULL STORY CLICK HERE:

Springfield Police Chief David Thompson indicated that the third suspect is still at large and that we will be receiving an updated description shortly.
