Gilbert Deleon, 27, is facing charges of robbery, conspiracy and related offenses in connection with a robbery at the Super 8 Motel on Bay Road near Milford on June 5.
Deleon and a second suspect, 41-year-old Fredrick Daniels, allegedly forced their way into the room of a 25-year-old male who lived at the hotel at about 4 p.m. One suspect apparently dropped a television on the victim repeatedly as the other ransacked the room.
