Two Brooklyn, New York, men were arrested Wednesday and charged with robbing a bishop and his wife of around $1 million in jewelry during a livestreamed church service.
A third man remains at large, the Justice Department said in a news release.
Juwan Anderson and Say-Quan Pollack, both 23, were arrested on charges of robbery, robbery conspiracy and possessing and brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence, according to an indictment unsealed in a federal court in Brooklyn.
The robbery happened in July as Bishop Lamor Whitehead was delivering a morning sermon at the Leaders of Tomorrow International Ministries church in Canarsie. New York police said assailants "displayed firearms and demanded property" from Whitehead and his wife.
