DAUPHIN COUNTY, Pa. — Update, Nov. 2: Two suspects have been arrested following a string of armed robberies. 

According to the Swatara Township Police Department, working alongside the Phillipsburg Police Department in New Jersey, officers were alerted that a robbery suspect had just led their jurisdiction. 

The license plate of the suspect's car was associated with a home along the 3100 block of Derry Street in Paxtang Borough.

Swatara officers located the vehicle and established a presence in the area with the assistance of the Harrisburg Bureau of Police and the Lower Paxton Township Bureau of Police. 

As a result, two men were arrested, Darryn Corbett, 47, and Duane Yancey. They have been charted with multiple counts of robbery, carrying a firearm without a license, aggravated assault and criminal conspiracy charges. 

Phillipsburg police also plan on filing charges against the men. 

They have been incarcerated at Dauphin County Prison with bail denied due to the high volume of robberies in the short period of time.
