PEORIA, Ill. – A Peoria juvenile has been arrested in connection to two armed robberies that have happened in the last few months.
Police say they interviewed a 17-year-old juvenile who was already in custody Wednesday, and investigators determined he was involved in the alleged armed robbery of a cab driver in late-June, during an incident starting on East Kansas.
Investigators say they later determined the same juvenile was also involved in an armed robbery and vehicle theft that occurred July 26th.
The juvenile now faces two counts of Armed Robbery and one count of Motor Vehicle Theft. It’s not known why the teen was already in custody.
A second teen may still be wanted for the June robbery.
