Two boys, both 15 years old, told police they thought they were meeting the suspects to buy shoes. When they approached the suspects' black SUV, one of the suspects got out of the car, pointed a handgun at them and announced a robbery.
The suspects drove away in the SUV after the teens gave up their money and property. The victims were not injured.
