SHELTON - Shelton Police Monday arrested 23-year old Jalen Bolton of Waterbury and 22-year old Ashan Langston of Bridgeport.

Additionally, Bolton was charged with possession of narcotics with intent to sell when officers located crack cocaine.

Both were held on $100,000 bond and transported Tuesday to Derby Superior Court.

The arrests stem from an incident that occurred at approximately 5:30 p.m. Monday, when Shelton Police were dispatched to a fight in the Municipal Parking lot at 415 Howe Ave. Officers canvassed the area; however, the individuals involved fled the scene, police said.

A short time later the victim came to the Shelton Police Department to report that he was robbed at gunpoint in downtown Shelton.

The victim stated he was able to fight off three suspects and get the license plate of the vehicle they were driving.

The vehicle information was shared with surrounding law enforcement agencies and Bridgeport Police Department Auto Theft Task Force located the vehicle in Bridgeport.

The vehicle was stopped and the occupants were identified as Langston and Bolton. The victim identified Langston and Bolton as two of the individuals that robbed him in Shelton.

The investigation is ongoing with additional arrests expected.
