MANCHESTER, NH – Corey Wolckzo, 25, no fixed address, was arrested Feb. 15 during a motor vehicle stop by Manchester Police. Wolckzo was arrested after police discovered he was wanted on an outstanding warrant for an attempted robbery in January, in which police say he posted an ad advertising a Nintendo game system for sale on a local website, and then allegedly tried to rob the man at knife point who came to buy the game system.

According to police, Wolczko met the alleged victim in front of a residence on Amherst Street on Jan, 21, 2015, allegedly to exchange a game system for cash. The victim told police Wolczko brandished a knife and attempted to rob him once he stepped out of the vehicle. The victim fled the scene and was able to escape the robbery attempt and report the incident to police.

Wolczko was charged with attempted armed robbery and was scheduled to appear in the 9th Circuit Court-Manchester on February 16, 2016.
