All of the suspects face charges that include armed robbery and aggravated assault.

Four people are in the Cobb County Adult Detention Center after police say they rushed into a couple's Cumberland area apartment and demanded money from them.

Between 12:10 and 12:40 a.m. May 20, Deise E. Brito knocked on the couple's front door at the Gables Mill Apartments and claimed that there was an emergency, a Cobb police officer wrote in Brito's warrant. Brito lives at Gables Mill, according to online jail records.

When a man opened the door, the officer said Brito, Lancelot M. Outland of Stone Mountain, Jepen Attieam Parson of Stone Mountain and Treze Demitri Parson of Providence, R.I., rushed into the apartment.
