CHICAGO — A Chicago couple is accused of going on a three-month armed robbery spree that targeted women who walked alone.

Charles Edwards on Thursday was ordered held without bond after being charged with armed and aggravated robbery. His wife, 38-year-old Karena Edwards, was ordered held in lieu of $1 million after also being charged with armed and aggravated robbery.

Chicago police say the couple drove around the city from April to mid-June, looking for women walking along. When a victim was spotted, the 40-year-old Edwards would get out the vehicle and rob her at gun-point, taking her purses and other valuables.
