PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — A man has been arrested for the brutal assault and robbery of two people at a market in South Philadelphia last month.
Police say Lance Ryan was taken into custody by the FBI in Baltimore, Maryland on Friday morning.
He will return to Philadelphia to face charges for the incident, Deputy Commissioner Frank Vanore tweeted.
The attack happened around 8:30 p.m. on Nov. 7 at Morris Market at the corner of 15th and Morris streets.

He repeatedly punches one victim and knocks the second unconscious.
Police say he stole valuables from both victims and took off.
