St. Mary Parish Sheriff's detectives arrested 26-year-old Jason Clark of Baldwin as the suspect who robbed a victim of several hundred dollars at gunpoint.

Detectives say they identified Clark as their suspect after a victim was robbed at a home on St. Joseph Lane.

Detectives says Clark admitted to them that he showed a handgun to a man at that home, and then he took several hundred dollars from the man and his cell phone.

The two knew each other.

Clark was also taken into custody for having an outstanding warrant in Lafayette Parish for failure to appear on charges of possession of marijuana and resisting arrest.
