RALEIGH -- Police seized clothes and marijuana from the house of a Raleigh teenager charged in five armed robberies, according to a search warrant returned Wednesday.

Police last week arrested Victor Jordan Johnson, 16, of 6531-315 Paces Arbor Circle. He was being held Wednesday in lieu of $700,000 bail in the Wake County jail. He also faces one count of attempted armed robbery.

According to the search warrant application, Johnson is a suspect in robberies from African Art Connections and a tanning salon in a Six Forks Road shopping center, and a GNC store and Hilker's Cleaners in a Creedmoor Road center. The search warrant says police caught Johnson after the robbery at African Art Connections on Friday. A witness followed him to a greenway area where police arrested him, the warrant said. The store clerk later identified him.

The search warrant inventory says investigators seized five pairs of shorts, shirts, a mobile phone and an ounce of marijuana.
