Man Robs Friend On The Way To Ensley Walmart
February 11, 2012
A friendship likely ended late Friday night as an Escambia County man robbed his friend while the pair were on their way to the Ensley Walmart.
According to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office, Clyde William McArthur and his friend, Robbin Decker, were on their way to Walmart when McArthur pushed Decker off his bicycle and began hitting him several times.
McArthur then fled on foot. Decker told deputies that his wallet, and undisclosed amount of money and the headlight from his bicylce were stolen by McArthur.
Deputies located McArthur in the immediate area, along with the victim’s wallet. He was also in possession of the exact amount and denominations of money that the victim reported stolen. The victim positively identified McArthur as the suspect who robbed him.
McArthur was charged with robbery and petit theft. McArthur, who listed his address as being a transient, remained in the Escambia County Jail Friday with bond set at $5,500.

No such thing as a “friend”! You’d better believe that.
I’m impressed…if someone were to rob me…I would have a ballpark figure of how much $$$ I had…but couldn’t tell you how many $5 or $10’s I had…
@cygie I don’t see how that bible verse applies to this article, seeing as it is talking about rebuking people who lead you into sin.
I figure if you’re going to all the trouble of knocking a man off his bike, you shouldn’t have to flee on foot.
Probably can’t make bail, so he’ll have a warm bed, anyway.
I hope jail is to this man what the belly of the whale was to Jonah; a place to think and decide what god he is serving. Bad choices are made every day.
What part of the article stated that the two men were riding tandem? I must have missed that!
It sounds like neither of these men had many possessions if they had to ride
tandem on a bike. You certainly would have thought that Friendship would
be something in their lives they would treasure.
Sometimes Friendship is the only thing that is durable and worth it’s weight in
gold. I guess this man treasures nothing, maybe that is why he is transient.
I hope he stays in jail.
“With friends like these, who needs enemies?”
good thing they’re not brothers
Luke 17:3 (KJV) Take heed to yourselves: If thy brother trespass against thee, rebuke him; and if he repent, forgive him.
The high cost of low prices.
