CARLISLE, Pa. (WHTM) -

A Carlisle man has been charged for his involvement in an armed robbery.

Borough police said 19-year-old Colin Wilson admitted to his role in the November 20 incident behind the Carlisle Commons parking lot during an interview about an unrelated crime.

Police continue to look for a second man in the robbery, in which two masked men took $10 from the 25-year-old victim and attempted to have him withdraw money from his bank account.

The victim reported that a pocket knife was used in the crime, police said.
