Three Harrisburg Men Sentenced for Cracker Barrel Armed Robbery

The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that George Stoney, age 40, Tory Dobbin, age 41, and Nathaniel Mosley, age 43, all from Harrisburg, were sentenced after pleading guilty to armed robbery and use of a firearm during a crime of violence.

Stoney was sentenced by United States District Court Judge Sylvia H. Rambo on March 12, 2015 to 188 months’ imprisonment, Dobbin was sentenced on March 9, 2015 to 210 months’ imprisonment, and Mosley was sentenced on December 3, 2014 to 168 months’ imprisonment.

According to U.S. Attorney Peter Smith, on December 3, 2013, Mosley, Dobbin and Stoney robbed the Cracker Barrel restaurant on Brindle Road in Harrisburg at gunpoint. The Susquehanna Township Police Department was alerted after a caller advised that individuals were inside the building robbing the restaurant. Officers arrived almost immediately and set up a perimeter around the building. Shortly thereafter three men wearing masks exited the restaurant and fled on foot. After a brief pursuit, all three men were apprehended. Officers located the stolen money and seized three firearms. All three men were federally charged on January 15, 2014.

The investigation was conducted by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Capital City Safe Streets Task Force and the Susquehanna Township Police Department. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Daryl F. Bloom.
