CUMMING - A Cumming man believed to be part of the same group committing armed robberies across Forsyth and Gwinnett counties was arrested last night.

Slaton has been charged with the August 26th armed robbery of the Chevron Station at Highway 20 and James Burgess Road. He has a first court appearance today on those charges.
He is being held at the Forsyth County Detention Center.
