Man faces multiple felonies in assault, robbery
BY WILLIAM WEST
Daily Advance
ELIZABETH CITY — A
Chowan County man is fac
ing multiple felony charges
for allegedly assaulting an
Elizabeth City man and
then using the man’s bank
card to help another sus
pect steal $300, court re
cords show.
Thomas Glenn Bivens,
49, of the 100 block of Riv-
erby Farm
Road,
Rocky
Hock, was
arrested
April 1 and
charged
with felony
common
law rob
bery, second-degree kid
napping and aiding and
abetting common law rob
bery.
According to an arrest
warrant, Bivens helped a
man assault the alleged
victim on Feb. 28, striking
him in the back of the head
with a heavy object. Bivens
then placed the victim in a
headlock and repeatedly
struck him in his head and
face with a closed fist, the
warrant states.
Bivens then helped a
woman use the victim’s
ATM card to withdraw $300
from the man’s bank ac
count, the warrant states.
According to the war
rant, the alleged victim suf
fered swelling to his head
and face, lacerations and
bruises.
According to court re
cords, neither of the other
suspects in the alleged as
sault and robbery have
been apprehended by law
enforcement yet.
Bivens’ secured bond
was set at $70,000. Albe
marle District Jail officials
said they have no record
of Bivens in custody, which
indicates he posted bond.
On Monday, Bivens ap
peared before District
Judge Amber Davis-Malar-
ney, who set his next court
date for May 1.
According to Pasquotank
District Court records, Biv
ens is also facing charges of
aiding and abetting prosti
tution in an unrelated mat
ter.
The charge, which is
considered a misdemeanor,
stems from his arrest on
Oct. 18 for allegedly paying
a woman for sex at a local
motel, the court records
state.
Bivens was released af
ter posting a $2,000 secured
bond and is due in district
court on that charge April
27.
