Arrest made on teen connected to alleged assault, robbery in Gilbert

Gilbert police have arrested a man in connection with his alleged involvement in an Aug. 18 assault and robbery incident near Williams Field Road and Market Street, officials said.

Christopher Fantastic, 18, was arrested Tuesday night in connection with his alleged involvement in the incident that took place in a parking lot, police said

The investigation is ongoing, police said.

This investigation is independent and separate from Queen Creek's investigation into the death of Preston Lord. 

However, the arrest happened on the same night Gilbert Town Council formed a subcommittee to look into teen violence, an action prompted by Lord's homicide and other assaults involving teens in the community.

Gilbert police said they will have more updates as they become availble.
