On or about November 17, 2019, four masked and armed men, one of which was Dunn, entered the Dollar General store on 4755 Prescott Drive in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The four robbers all brandished handguns. In the store, one robber walked up to a Dollar General cashier and pointed his handgun at the cashier. That robber then jumped over the register and, unlawfully and against their will, took money from the safe while directly in the presence of a Dollar General employee. During the robbery, Tyler Dunn, age 23, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, forced an employee to move from the back of the store to the front of store while pointing a handgun at her. The robbers obtained approximately $7,000 from Dollar General.

On or about November 21, 2019, four robbers, which included Dunn, approached two employees of the Dollar General store located at 6365 Scenic Hwy as they stood outside the front door getting ready to lock the security gate. All robbers were wearing masks and armed with guns. The robbers, brandishing their guns, forced the two employees to open the door and enter the store. One robber ordered an employee to the back of the store while pointing a handgun at him and had the employee turn off an alarm. While in the presence of the robbers, an employee, against her will, removed approximately $1,200 from a safe and provided it to the robbers.
