Posted

Another arrest was made in connection with a Sept. 18 robbery of a man in the Syracuse area.

Donald Black, 21, of Goshen, was booked into the Kosciusko County Jail at 1:39 a.m. today. He is charged with robbery with injury and is being held on $10,000 bond.

Earlier this month, police arrested Jarrett Oliver Fisher, 24, of Nappanee.

Black and Fisher are accused of beating William Lent on Sept. 18 and robbing him of $1,700 after Lent gave the two men a ride to a party.

Lent told police he knew both men and he went to the party with them for a while before he decided to leave. One of the other men was driving Lent's pickup when, shortly after leaving the party, he pulled over in the parking lot of Dewart Lake Inn. At that time, Lent was allegedly pulled from the vehicle, hit and kicked, robbed and left in the parking lot.
