Two Charged in Woodbridge Armed Robberies

Prince William County Police have charged a Woodbridge man and a Burke woman in two Woodbridge area armed robberies. 

Marcus O'Brien McAllister, 31, of Pinetree Court in Woodbridge, is charged with three counts of credit card theft and two counts of grand larceny. Carmina Juanita Lopez, 31, Coffer Woods Drive in Burke, is charged with providing a false identification to police, forging public documents, two counts of credit card theft and two counts of grand larceny.

Police responded to the first incident May 12 at 8 a.m., when a 37-year-old Woodbridge man reported that he was robbed. The victim said that he made arrangements to meet an unknown woman near Gardenview Loop and Summerland Drive. Police said that after the victim arrived, he found Lopez with MacAllister, who demanded that the victim hand over car keys and money.

The man and the woman took the victim's cell phone and an undisclosed amount of cash, then fled with his Toyota SUV. The victim was not injured.

Around 1:07 p.m., police responded to another report of a robbery. The 45-year-old Woodbridge man encountered Lopez on the 13300 block of Occoquan Road and got into the car with her, police said. After the victim drove to Devils Reach Road and Carolyn Forest Drive, he found out that a masked man had been hiding in the back seat. 

The man, who police identified as McAllister, pulled out a knife and stole the victim's wallet and cell phone. The two then forced the victim to get out of the car, police said. The victim was not injured. 

Police believe that the car was the same one stolen earlier in the day. 

Police said that Lopez, who was wanted out of multiple jurisdictions, gave a fake name to officers after she was arrested.
