And bingo, two unrelated incidents were suddenly connected. That gun Mike had, it seemed, at least at first, that it was the literal smoking gun for detectives over in East Windsor. Because forensic testing showed that this was, without a doubt, the gun that was used in Javid's murder. So, obviously, the detectives in East Windsor took a hard look at Mike.

And it turned out that police in yet another town were looking at him too. Detectives in Manchester, Connecticut suspected Mike and his buddy Tyrone were involved in another robbery. This robbery was in Manchester on the evening of February 28th, just two hours before Javid was killed and only 30 minutes away from Javid's store.

Just before 8.30 that night, a man called police in Manchester to report that he'd been walking down the street with a friend when two young black men, one in a dark hoodie, one in a lighter colored jacket, came up to them and pulled out a revolver. One of the robbers demanded that the man hand over his cell phone and ask if he had any cocaine.

One of the robbers demanded that the man hand over his cell phone and ask if he had any cocaine.

The man told the robber he didn't have any drugs and refused to just hand over his phone. That didn't go over well. The robber put the revolver up to the man's head and cocked the gun. Then he shoved the man to the ground and started going through his pockets, stealing his Motorola Razr flip phone, $7 in cash, and his hair pick.

Both victims told police that the second robber seemed stressed when his friend cocked the gun and told him to cut it out, and he used a nickname for his accomplice. Now, detectives didn't want to reveal what that nickname was, but they did say that it is pretty close, like just one letter off from a nickname that one of Tyrone's and Mike's friends is known to go by.

The victims weren't able to describe the robbers in too much detail because they were both wearing ski masks. But they told police that they ran off and hopped into a dark-colored SUV. So, these guys were wearing a dark hoodie and a light jacket, carrying a revolver, and were taking off in a dark SUV. Sound familiar? Yeah.

It turned out that stolen Razor's cell phone provided another clue about who these guys might be. Manchester police pulled the records for the phone and saw that someone had made an outgoing call right after the robbery, a call the victim confirmed he didn't make.
