On 7/30/2014 at 6:50pm the victim arrived at 1100 block of South K Street, Lake Worth, to meet with friends. Upon arrival the victim was confronted by the suspect, CODY MINCEY. The suspect stole the victim's gold bracelet and fled back to his residence. As the victim was trying to understand what just occurred the suspect exited his residence and again confronted the victim demanding more property. The victim refused and the suspect entered the victims pocket. They began to struggle when MINCEY produced a small black semi auto and pistol whipped the victim. MINCEY was able to steal $50 during fight with victim. During the fight MINCEY backed away from the victim, racking the slide on the gun. Fearing being shot the victim fled.
While conducting the investigation, PBSO Detectives learned the suspect barricaded himself inside an apartment that does not belong to him. The apartment was locked down where announcements were made by PBSO. After approximately 20 minutes deputies were able to coax the suspect to surrender.
Suspect made incriminating statements and was later transported to Palm Beach County Jail. A search warrant was drafted and executed in the MINCEY’s residence. Located in the residence were two black (realistic looking) pellet gun's with metal frames. Also located was a Remington 12 Gauge shotgun with the serial number removed.
