Officers contacted the suspect three days ago on a phone call, according to Tyler Police spokesperson Don Martin. Information given by Lee on that contact provided officers a possible lead that he may have been involved in today's robbery. Officers followed up on that information and located the suspect vehicle used in today's robbery at 1012 N. Palace.

Officers made verbal contact with Lee at the residence, set up a perimeter around the residence and were able to talk Lee out of the residence without incident.

Lee was transported to Smith County Jail and booked on the aggravated robbery charge.
