  • Man Robbed Of Cash, Gold Teeth

    Suspect Accused Of Stealing Gold Teeth, Earring, Watch, Cash

    UPDATED: 1:41 pm CDT June 24, 2009

    A Kansas City man accused of stealing a set of gold teeth in a robbery faces criminal charges.

    The Kansas City Star reported that Montez L. Turner, 27, was charged Tuesday in Jackson County Circuit Court with one count of first-degree robbery and one count of armed criminal action.

    Authorities allege that Turner also ripped an earring from the alleged victim's ear and took $1,100 in $100 bills and the victim's watch on Monday.

    Police said the men then struggled, and the suspect fired two shots from a 9mm handgun.

    Police arrested Turner after finding the money, watch, gold teeth and an apparently bloody earring in his shirt pocket.
