19-year-old Montavius Bass was charged with robbery and evading arrest after he told someone at the Exxon Hi-Road in Clarksville that he wanted $80 and free gas and when it was refused, he said they had ten seconds to give it to him and he started counting down. He was found to be in a stolen car and ran when marijuana fell out of his pocket during questioning by police.

On June 11th, close to 1:30 am Montavius Bass was walking out of an Exxon Hi store located at 4015 Trenton Road that reported a robbery. When CPD Officer Roederer arrived he saw Bass walking backward out of the store and asked him what was going on. Bass said that he was just pulling a prank on the victim and not trying to rob him. He was asked for his identification when a bag of marijuana fell out of his pocket and another officer arrived. When that officer attempted to pick up the baggy Bass ran away from being detained.
