Three men have been charged in last week’s armed robbery of a charity poker room just outside Detroit.

According to DetroitNews.com, Nickolas Jonathan Frederick, Michael Eugene Pennington and Daniel William Frederick are accused of robbing patrons at Momo’s Charity Poker Room at around 1 a.m. on Friday, April 1.

Witnesses said that the men had been playing in the poker room before leaving and allegedly later returning wearing masks and armed with guns.

The robbers took cash from a drawer, as well as cash and personal items from players, police said. There were more than a dozen people in the room when the robbery happened, and fortunately no one was injured.

All three suspects are due back in court later this month.
