(STMW) -- An 18-year-old man charged with armed robbery was identified by a wallet left behind at the Gary, Indiana home he allegedly burglarized.

Terryante Ashaun Flournoy, of Gary, was charged Wednesday with armed robbery and burglary, according to Gary police.

On Monday, Flournoy and two others entered a home in the 5000 block of Jefferson Street through a bedroom window, police said. Inside, one of them pointed a gun at a teenager who lives at the home and threatened her.
