Lancaster teen faces conspiracy, accessory charges in recent shooting, sheriff says

A Lancaster teen is charged in connection with a Chester County armed robbery where another teen was shot, officials said.

Jaimon Tywan Hannah, 18, is charged with criminal conspiracy and accessory before the fact in a felony, according to police and jail records.

Hannah is one of three suspects who officials say used the internet to lure the victim, according to arrest warrants obtained by The Herald.

Hannah assisted in the crime by “procuring the identity of the victim through social media, and aided with counseling the commission of an armed robbery with a deadly weapon where the victim was shot twice,” arrest warrants state.

The incident happened near a cell tower in Edgemoor in rural Chester County near the Catawba River, Sheriff Max Dorsey said.

The 19-year-old victim was airlifted to a Charlotte hospital by helicopter Jan. 14 after being shot in the side and hand, Dorsey said.

The name of the victim has not been released.

Two other suspects were charged Jan. 20, according to police and court records.

Sammari De’Antrez McFadden, 25, of Lancaster, is charged with attempted murder, possession of a weapon during a violent crime, armed robbery, and conspiracy, police and court records show.

Destiny Tikeyiah Mickles, 19, of Edgemoor, is charged with armed robbery, accessory to a felony before the fact, and conspiracy, according to police records.

Sheriff’s officials have not released details about what was stolen in the robbery.
