O'FALLON, Mo. • A man and woman planned a robbery, picked up their victim, then carried out the crime — all while the woman's 2-year-old was in the back seat, police say.

Charged with robbery and armed criminal action are Tom Willie Branch, 24, of the 2200 block of Outlook Drive in Jennings, and Bridget Samantha Bagwell, 21, of the 2200 block of North Fourth Street in St. Charles.

According to police, the pair picked up a woman about 7:55 p.m. Thursday in the 1000 block of Pinewood Place Drive. The woman got into the front passenger seat, while Bagwell drove and Branch sat in the back with the toddler.

About 25 minutes later, Bagwell slowed down the vehicle, and Branch pulled out a silver revolver, poking the woman in the side of the abdomen with it and demanding she give him all of her money, her cellphone and her cigarettes. The woman handed over the items, including $120 in cash, and then got out of the car when Branch told her to.

Branch threw the woman's cellphone out of the car, breaking it, but the woman was able to dial 911 after they drove off. She was near the intersection of Homefield Boulevard and Haven View Circle when she called, police said.
