Police Arrest 11-Year-Old in Robbery Case
OMAHA, Neb. - Omaha police have arrested an 11-year-old boy as a robbery suspect. The boy, already sought on suspicion of burglary, and a 15-year-old companion were armed with BB guns.
A woman and a teenage girl told police that two boys had fired BBs at their upstairs apartment windows about 7:40 p.m. Sunday.
The boys then forced their way inside the apartment, pointed the BB guns at the woman and the girl and stole tools and compact discs, a police report said.
Shortly afterward the boys were spotted in the area and arrested.
Officer Chris LeGrow, a spokesman for the Omaha Police Department, said Tuesday that he didn't know whether the boy was the youngest armed robbery suspect ever arrested by his department.
But he recalled once having to lift a burglary suspect up to a counter so the boy could sign a police form. LeGrow didn't recall the boy's age.
