Harry Styles’ American Doppelganger Arrested After Nabbing Pot & Cash In Blair County

The police arrested a Harry Styles look-alike on Monday for an armed robbery in an apartment in Tyrone, Blair County, Pennsylvania.

Back on Jan. 21, Jason Sanderlin, who looks like Styles, allegedly stole marijuana and cash after illegally entering an apartment located at at the 300 block of W. 11th Street in Tyrone. The state police claimed that Sanderlin, who kicked down the door of the apartment and ordered three people to get on the ground, wielded an automatic rifle, WTAJ reported.

Emily Eirhart, Sanderlin’s longtime partner, allegedly identified him as the robber with the rifle after watching video footage given by the victim. According to police, Sanderlin stole a quarter pound of marijuana and cash amounting to $400 from the victim, whose identity was not disclosed, WGN-TV reported.

The report also stated that a woman was allegedly hit over the head by Sanderlin with a gun during the incident. The suspect tried to bind her with zip ties, and when she fought back, the alleged suspect grabbed her breast.

The woman, who reportedly stands 5'3", told the authorities that she grabbed the gun from the robber, who stands at the same height or slightly taller than her, to defend herself.

Immediately after the incident, Sanderlin posted a clip on Snapchat with the pot, according to police. Meanwhile, the supposed victim claimed that a friend contacted him about Sanderlin selling marijuana — the bulk of which, as shown in the video, was similar to the pot nabbed from him.

Sanderlin was previously implicated for allegedly helping Eirhart rob and assault a woman near Gospel Hill. According to Altoona police, Eirhart, 19, allegedly had someone drive the victim to the 1400 block of 15th Avenue at around 2:30 in the afternoon, where the victim was repeatedly struck, dragged out and bitten, WTAJ reported.

Eirhart and Sanderlin's relationship was faltering and they allegedly blamed the victim; Hence, the incident was part of a revenge plot. Sanderlin was reportedly the one who drove the car, with co-defendant Lavelle Nelom and the victim as his passengers, Altoona Mirror reported.

Eirhart, after allegedly giving a taped confession to the police, was charged with felony robbery and aggravated assault. Meanwhile, her boyfriend was charged with robbery, conspiracy, aggravated assault, criminal trespass, false imprisonment, indecent assault and terroristic threats.

It is yet to be determined whether Sanderlin had an accomplice during the Jan. 21 robbery incident. The Tyrone robbery case has a bail set at $200,000 while the Altoona robbery case’s bail is at $50,000.

Altoona Police charged Sanderlin with escape, disorderly conduct, and harassment on April 13, 2019, Conan Daily reported.
