More charges have been filed against a Nesquehoning man who is accused of robbing two girls at gunpoint.

According to Nesquehoning Police, Elijah Michael Frey, 18, of East Railroad Street, faces additional charges of resisting arrest and two counts of simple assault, as a result of the incident.He was already charged with three counts of robbery, two counts of conspiracy to commit robbery, two counts of simple assault, and one count each of criminal solicitation to commit robbery, conspiracy to commit retail theft, and conspiracy to receive stolen property.According to the affidavit of probable cause, on Jan. 20, Nesquehoning police secured a felony warrant for robbery on Frey, after learning that he was one of six suspects who pointed a gun at two girls, ages 12 and 13, and demanded their phones. During the robbery, Frey and two accomplices pushed their handguns into the girls' ribs and took one phone.That afternoon, Officer Timothy Wuttke, Chief Sean Smith and Officer trainee Richard Neikam went to Frey's residence to serve the warrant.Once at the residence, police spoke with a female, asking her if Frey was home. She said that he was and went to get him. A man, identified as Frey, came to the door.At the time, Wuttke advised Frey that they had a felony warrant for his arrest and said he would need to come with police.Frey began cursing at the officers, saying he was not going anywhere and attempted to walk back into the home.The affidavit reports that Wuttke blocked Frey's path and said he was under arrest and instructed him to put his hands behind his back. Frey first appeared to be complying with police, but as Wuttke attempted to handcuff him, Frey began to tense up and say he would not let them arrest him.At the time, Frey yanked his arm and body away from officers and attempted to break the hold Wuttke had on his wrist while cursing at him.Frey continued to resist so Smith attempted to help Wuttke, grabbing Frey's wrist, but again he forcibly pulled away, getting free this time. During the struggle, officers advised Frey to calm down and stop resisting.The affidavit says that Smith drew his stun gun and told Frey to stop resisting "or he was going to be tased."Frey continued cursing and struggling with officers and Smith again repeated commands to stop.Wuttke said that Frey responded that he did not care and continued to resist; Smith fired the stun gun, striking Frey in the chest.Frey then complied with directions and allowed police to handcuff him.During the struggle, the affidavit said Smith suffered a sprained wrist that required treatment.
