A 19-year-old in jail on a charge of holding up a pizza shop in Hillsborough now faces a new charge of trying to rob a Pizza Hut in Durham.

Durham police on Thursday charged Antonio Andrew Holman, 19, of Dunn Ave., Durham, with attempted robbery, second-degree kidnapping and assault by pointing a gun.

He is accused of approaching an employee outside the Pizza Hut on N.C. 55 just before midnight July 25 and forcing the worker into the restaurant at gunpoint. Police said he tried but failed to get money from the safe and cash register.

Police served the warrants on Holman in the Orange County Jail, where he has been held since his arrest Saturday night on a charge of robbing a Domino's Pizza in Hillsborough.

He was being held in lieu of $300,000 bond.
