Four more men have been arrested in connection with a Tuesday night home invasion in Radford.

In a news release, Radford police said Justin Sante Little, 23, turned himself in to authorities early Saturday morning. The Radford man was named as a suspect Wednesday after police arrested two other men in connection with the incident in the 100 block of Copper Beech Road.

Police said victims reported at least two men entered a residence wearing bandan as over their faces. At least one of the men was armed with a handgun, according to the release, and pistol-whipped a victim in the back of the head. The suspects demanded jewelry and fled.

Little is charged with breaking and entering, robbery and use of a firearm in the commission of a robbery. Police also announced the arrest of three other men in connection to the home invasion and robbery.

William Marcell Minter, 18, of Radford, was arrested earlier Saturday and charged with breaking and entering, robbery and use of a firearm in the commission of a robbery.

Dakota Randall Young, 21, of Radford, and Tyler David Naftzger, 21, of Sterling, also are in jail on charges related to the incident. They are both charged with conspiring to break and enter and conspiring to commit grand larceny.

In all, six men face charges in the incident. Three face breaking and entering and robbery charges, while three are charged with conspiring in the crime.

Little, who turned himself in without incident, is being held at the New River Valley Regional Jail without bond. Minter and Young are also being held at the New River Valley Regional Jail, while Naftzger was arrested in Loudoun County. He is being held in the Loudoun County Adult Detention Center.

The men arrested Wednesday — Johnie Winfield Hood, 20, of Belspring, and De’Lonnie Leon Leggett, 21, of Radford — are both being held in New River Valley Regional Jail.

The release said the investigation is ongoing.
