Four months later, Drakes is benched by cops again

By JIM BUTLER

The last time the parish hosted Robert Drakes III, 20, it was because he was allegedly waving firearms, including a machine gun, on a parking lot off Enterprise Road.

He and a 15-year-old were accused of videotaping their tough-guy act, recording it for reasons never disclosed.

This time around, four months later, Drakes is accused of a Monday night armed robbery.

His bail is set at $150,000.

Drakes in the alleged October incident was charged with contributing, possessing stolen firearms, illegally handling machine gun, terrorizing and being a fugitive.

That bail was set at $9,000, which he posted four days later.

The juvenile was charged on the gun counts and with resisting and entered the juvenile justice system.
