HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- Two teenagers are behind bars after police say they pretended to help a couple load up their new television in a Walmart parking lot, but ended up stealing it Friday.

A couple left the Route 60 Walmart in Huntington with a brand new 37 inch LCD TV, when a 19-year-old Jason Pease of Huntington offered to help put it in their car.

According to the criminal complaint, the couple accepted the help -- then Pease put one hand behind his back and said, "Give me your TV or I will shoot you."

At that time, police say an accomplice, a female juvenile, pulled up in a BMW and the two took off with the TV in the car.

Police found Pease and the female juvenile at a Huntington home later that evening; they have both been arrested and charged with unarmed robbery.

And as i look on these comments, i realize the most of the people on here are idiots themselves, you CAN NOT be charged for "Armed Robbery" with just the implication and/or assumption of being armed, thats like me saying your a homosexual, i dont know im just assuming you are. I'm sure the police did a search for a weapon.

I knew Jason too, I went all through school (11 years minimum) with him. The Jason I knew wouldn't do this. I agree with concerned If you knew the real Jason you wouldnt be sayin the stuff you are, we were very good friends and hope he learns from this experience.

I know Jason personally, although I don't agree with what he and his female accomplice did to this poor couple who purchased the tv I do have to say, Jason is normally a really good guy. I've known him for over 8 years and he has had a really rough life. I was extremely shocked to hear of this incident. I pray for not only Jason...but for the victims too. I hope Jason can turn his life around and go back to the sweet lovable guy I know him to be!
