An Orlando woman was arrested Wednesday after deputies say she was involved in a robbery after inviting a man over to her apartment.
AA, 29, is facing robbery with a firearm, grand theft and aggravated battery charges, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
The incident happened on Monday when deputies responded to a 911 call about a man who had been beaten with an ax and robbed at an apartment complex on Colonial Drive.
The victim told deputies he drove to the apartment to meet A when the three men attacked him, taking his wallet, phone and keys, an OCSO arrest affidavit says.
The victim had a stab wound to the back and a laceration on his head, OCSO said.
The victim told deputies he started following a woman, later identified as A, on Instagram a year ago, but she began messaging him two weeks ago. At one point, A’s boyfriend told the victim to leave her alone.
The victim said he did until A said they had broken up and she invited him over. She was dressed in lingerie and came out to meet him when he arrived, the affidavit says.
The victim followed A upstairs, where he was approached and told not to move by a man the victim said was A’s boyfriend.
The victim ran down the stairs, where two more men were waiting with a knife and an ax and began to hit him.
OCSO said the victim was able to run after being hit, but the men caught up to him and hit him again.
That’s when the victim was able to hop a fence and find someone to call 911.
OCSO said the victim’s car was found abandoned.
A search warrant allowed deputies to locate clothing matching the victim’s description of the suspects, and surveillance video corroborated the victim’s account.
A at first said she was afraid of the victim and that’s why the men attacked him, but later admitted they had planned the attack.
A was taken into custody.
Her boyfriend, Nicholas Lavallee, is also facing charges.
