Cantonment Man Charged With Robbing Same Store Twice
February 27, 2019
A Cantonment man has now been judged mentally competent to stand trial for robbing a convenience store, and now he’s facing additional charges for allegedly robbing the same store in 2016.
Napoleon Bonaport Grandison, 46, was arrested Monday for robbery with a firearm and battery for the armed robbery of a Circle K on Mobile Highway in July 2016. He entered the store wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, told the clerk he had a gun and demanded money, according to arrest report. He allegedly pushed the clerk down, punched him in his side and grabbed the cash register containing about $50. He dropped the cash register on his way out of the store and fled on a bicycle.
Grandison was identified by DNA evidence.
Grandison was previously arrested for robbery of the same store in October 2016. He is facing charges of two counts of battery on a law enforcement officer, robbery with a firearm, battery of a police dog, resisting an officer with violence and giving a false name to law enforcement. When deputies caught up with him a short distance away, he allegedly pushed two deputies off him as they attempted to detain him. He was also accused of kicking and striking a third deputy and physically placing his arm around the neck of and choking Escambia County K-9 Alek.
In early 2017, Grandison was found mentally incompetent to stand trial in that case, but now he’s been judged competent enough to stand trial with his next court date set for March.
Grandison is being held in jail with bond set at $378,000.

If you’re going to go through the trouble to rob a store, at least get you a good get away plan!
Really? It takes several robberies or crimes to prove a person is mentally competent to stand trial.
He must be a large meaty man to push two deputies off of him and choke hold a K-9 dog.
Unbelievable and scary how some of these people can get away with crimes they commit and walk the same streets as I do.
Probably will hear about many criminals acting stupid so they can be proven incompetent.
