Charlotte County Sheriff's detectives arrested five Port Charlotte people today in connection with a Wednesday afternoon robbery in the CVS store at U.S. 41 and Midway Blvd., Port Charlotte.

CCSO received the call at 3:50 p.m. after a 45-year-old woman said she was held, choked and threatened to be killed in the store restroom if she didn't give her purse to the robbers. The woman said two young girls and a man ran out of the restroom with her purse and out the front door. Deputies and detectives converged on the area and arrested the suspects.

An in-store video showed the three teen robbers enter the store, and follow the woman into the restroom where the robbery occurred. It also showed them come out of the restroom, one had a purse, and all three exited.

Danielle M. Catania, 15, 21ooo block of Kenelm Avenue.; Angel R. Crawford, 17, and Joel Lee Miley (aka Slick Jo Jo), both of 22000 block of Midway Boulevard, were charged with robbery.

John Joseph Diggins, 22, 2000 block of Easy Street, and Christopher Dewayne Feliciano, 21, 22000 block of LaSalle Road, were charged with being principal in the first degree to the robbery.

Detectives later learned Catania and Crawford allegedly called the female "victim" to buy 30 Roxicodone pills for $360. Detectives have not released the name of the "victim" and charges at this time are pending further investigation.

Catania and Crawford were transferred to the Department of Juvenile Justice center in Ft. Myers; Miley, Diggins and Feliciano are being held in the Charlotte County Jail.
