SAN ANTONIO (November 1, 2009)--San Antonio police got some help in the search for an 18-year-old wanted for robbery after finding a dropped wallet near the scene of the holdup.

An arrest affidavit says Michael Kern, 18, was one of three men who attempted to rob a man at knifepoint Oct. 24 at an apartment complex.

A man said he was walking his dog when Kern and two others approached and one of them pulled a knife on the victim, who started running.

Authorities found Kern's wallet on the ground after the Oct. 24 holdup.

The victim saw the photo and identified Kern who was arrested Wednesday.

He was charged with aggravated robbery and was transferred to the Bexar County Jail with bail.

His bond was set at $50,000.
