Evil thrives…

OMAHA – Police on Wednesday booked a 22-year-old Omaha man identified as a suspect in the assault and robbery of an elderly woman in the back of St. Cecilia Cathedral.
They also arrested his mother.
Wayman Clark of Omaha was booked into the Douglas County Jail on suspicion of robbery, said Officer Michael Pecha, a police spokesman.
Clark’s mother, Charlean Clark, 53, of Omaha, was booked on suspicion of being an accessory to a felony for harboring a fugitive, a felony.

A felony warrant for Wayman Clark was issued earlier Wednesday after members of the Omaha Police Department’s gang unit thought they recognized him as one of two assailants seen in a surveillance video. Crime Stoppers also received several tips indicating that Clark may have been involved, Pecha said.
Officers with the gang unit and members of the Metro Area Fugitive Task Force located both Clarks shortly before noon in a vehicle at an apartment complex near 137th and Harrison Streets. Police have not identified a second suspect in the assault and robbery Sunday at St. Cecilia Cathedral, 701 N. 40th St.
Charlean Clark, speaking to a reporter from a relative’s phone Wednesday afternoon, said the family had no comment. (read more)
