ATTLEBORO - Police say an early morning robbery of fast food at the drive-through window at Wendy's in Mansfield over the weekend has landed two Foxboro High School seniors - both student athletes - in court.
Nicholas Britton, 18, of 3 Joanna Drive, and Christopher Redd, 18, of 30 Carmine Ave., both of Foxboro, were arraigned Monday in Attleboro District Court on related charges and were released without bail.
Britton faces unarmed robbery, assault and disorderly charges; Redd was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol and being a minor in possession of alcohol, according to court records. The incident was reported at 12:44 a.m. Saturday.
Britton allegedly stole a bag of food at the drive-through window as the clerk was handing it to another customer, then climbed into Redd's car.
The suspects were arrested in the parking lot by officers Jeffrey Danner and Kenneth Wright.
Detective Sgt. Sam Thompson, the police court prosecutor, said the clerk twisted her arm during the incident.
According to court records, Redd took a breath-alcohol test which revealed his blood alcohol level was 0.13 percent. The legal limit in Massachusetts is 0.08 percent.
Both Britton and Redd were linemen on the Foxboro High School Warriors football team. Britton also participates in track and Redd is on the school wrestling team. Redd is due back in court on June 15, and Britton is due back in court on April 23.
