A Turin woman was arrested in north Fayette County early Tuesday after

she and another man were setting up a getaway car for an armed robbery

attempt at an all-night convenience store, police said.

Sheena Angela Shedd, 19, escaped in a stolen vehicle after her cohort

was placed in handcuffs by a Fayette deputy, police said. She was later

found hiding in bushes in a north Fayette subdivision.

Shedd and the other suspect were planning to rob the Citgo store at the

intersection of Ga. highways 138 and 314, said Lt. Col. Bruce Jordan of

the Fayette County Sheriff's Department. They arrived in two stolen

vehicles: one that had just been stolen from a newspaper carrier in Newnan

prior to the incident and another that had been stolen Saturday from a

gas station in Clayton County at the intersection of Tara Boulevard and

Ga. Highway 54, Jordan said.

Shedd is charged with one felony count of theft by receiving stolen property

and misdemeanor counts of theft by receiving stolen property, obstruction

of a police officer and driving with a revoked license.

Charges and the identity of the second suspect were unavailable at press

time Thursday.
