POCONO SUMMIT - A Carbon County teen is in custody after a gunpoint robbery that police say was possibly gang-related.

Kenneth Lloyd, 19, of Albrightsville, was arrested Tuesday and charged with simple assault, robbery and theft. Police said Mr. Lloyd stole the car keys of a 17-year-old juvenile who lived in the Monroe County community of Stillwater Lakes. Mr. Lloyd allegedly confronted the victim over involvement in a gang.

Mr. Lloyd then fled in a gray Mustang at about 2:10 p.m.

Another 17-year-old who was with Mr. Lloyd was charged with possession of marijuana.
