A 25-year-old suspect accused of robbing a victim on March 13 in the Fairfax District was arrested the following day when he appeared in court in Compton on an earlier gun possession charge, police said.

The suspect, Marcellus Moore, of Los Angeles, allegedly robbed a man around 7:10 p.m. on March 13 near Beverly Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue. The suspect shoved the victim to the ground and stole a designer satchel, according to police.
