Troopers Arrest Two Juveniles for Attempted Robbery

Delaware State Police have arrested two 14-year-old juvenile males for attempted robbery and related charges following an incident that occurred during the end of August.

.

On August 25, 2022, at approximately 7:44 p.m., troopers responded to the Capriottis sandwich shop, located at 120 Lantana Drive, Hockessin, DE regarding an attempted knife-point robbery. A 66-year-old female victim and a 38-year-old female victim were sitting outside of the sandwich shop when they were approached by two suspects. One of the suspects displayed a kitchen knife towards the victims and demanded both their car keys. The victims did not comply so the suspect then demanded their purses. The victims again did not comply, so the suspects fled the scene on foot.
