Robbery Arrest Following Motor Vehicle Crash

PARSIPPANY — Parsippany-Troy Hills Patrol Officers responded to the area of Alexander Drive for a person striking a vehicle with an object in the roadway on Tuesday, July 19 at 1:57 a.m.

Once on scene Patrol Officer E. Giordano conducted an initial investigation which revealed the victim/driver, a 19 year old male from Parsippany and the accused, later identified as Anthony Chacon, 21, Lake Hiawatha, were involved in a road rage incident prior to the crash.

Once the crash occurred between the accused’s vehicle, a 2001 Honda CRV and the victim’s vehicle, a 2003 Hyundai Elantra, the accused exited his vehicle and began to further damage the victim’s vehicle.

The victim then exited his vehicle at which time the accused pushed him against the Hyundai Elantra, threw his vehicle keys, and removed cash from him.

The accused then left the area in his Honda CRV. Patrol Officers were advised of the accused’s vehicle description along with his identity.

A short time later the accused was located at his residence and placed under arrest by Patrol Officer J. Schicke and J. Hughes.

The accused was transported back to Police Headquarters where he was charged with Robbery and Criminal Mischief. He was transported to Morris County Correctional Facility in lieu of bail pending a court appearance.

Editors Note: A complaint or a charge is merely an accusation. Despite this accusation, the defendant is presumed innocent until he or she is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.
