New Castle County Police have arrested three teenage males who robbed two separate victims at gunpoint Saturday night in Woodland Heights near Prices Corner.
Police said the three teens first robbed a female of her purse at gunpoint, and then fled in a nearby Honda Accord to a second location, where they attempted to rob a man who was preparing to enter his residence, then fled when they were told he had no money.
Several county police officers responded to the neighborhood at 11:15 p.m. and Officer Mark Censurato spotted the car and stopped it with several assisting officers.
The woman’s purse was recovered from the car and the three teens were taken into custody without incident.
The suspects were identified as:
• Gabriel Juarez-Diaz, a 17 year old male who resides in the unit block of Simca Lane in the Dorjul Apartments.
• Narcizo Bedolla, a 15 year old male who resides in the unit block of Court Drive in the Lancaster Court Apartments.
• Jose Antonio Corona, a 16 year old male who resides in the 3900 block of Sussex Road in the Lancaster Court Apartments.
They were charged with robbery, attempted robbery, conspiracy, and wearing a disguise during the commission of a felony.
