Two of the suspects charged with robbing a New York lawyer in his hotel room at the Ritz-Carlton San Juan were women invited to his room.
Puerto Rico authorities have charged five suspects in connection with the robbery of New York lawyer Robert Anello. Police initially had six under arrest, but charges were dropped against a 17-year-old girl in the room at the time, according to published reports.
According to Capt. Samuel Luciano, the women called three men who helped carry out the robbery.
Anello allegedly was bound with lamp cords, robbed of $800 in cash from the room safe and threatened until he gave up the password for his debit card. His two cell phones and four credit cards also were taken.
All five suspects are charged with robbery and unlawful imprisonment and remain in jail after not posting bail totaling $122,000.
A preliminary hearing is set for Nov. 30.
