Police in an Indianapolis neighborhood say last month a woman was outside checking her mail around 4 a.m. after her work shift when a man approached her, pointed a gun to her head and stole $100 in cash. The suspect then asked, with a gun still pointed at her, if she had a boyfriend and if she would add him on Facebook. Court records show the suspect, later identified as Damien Boyce, opened his phone, pointed at his profile and watched the woman add him, saying he would pay back. He then fled the scene on a bicycle.The probable cause affidavit shows the two exchanged messages later that day.Boyce said, "Look just know imma pay you back, it's an (expletive) way to meet but (expletive) you was to pretty to rob." The victim replied, "I believe you man. I can tell you're sweet. Times just get rough I know that."Court records show Boyce was charged with armed robbery on Wednesday. Boyce was arrested and charged in a separate incident last week for robbery resulting in bodily injury and battery by means of a deadly weapon amongst other charges. In that incident, he allegedly shot two people and hit someone else in the head with a brick. Boyce is due in court on Thursday afternoon.
