Bonds of $10,000 each were set Thursday for two Pine Bluff men arrested following a reported armed disturbance Tuesday.

Pine Bluff District Judge John Kearney set the bonds after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge Roderick Blackmon Jr., 19, with aggravated assault and Roderick Robinson, 39, with terroristic threatening.

Reading from an affidavit by Detective Sgt. Corey Wilfong, Deputy Prosecutor Joe West said in the late afternoon or early evening, police responded to Miramar Drive in response to a reported armed disturbance.

Wilfong reported that Robinson declined to give a statement and Blackmon said he did not point an AR-15 at them but admitted owning an AR-15 and having it in the vehicle. He said he believed the victims might have seen the gun while he was moving it around.

Blackmon and Robinson said they would hire their own attorneys. They were ordered to have no contact with the victims and told to come back to court Sept. 17.
