Police: Boys Steal Bike at Knifepoint From 7-Year-Old

Anne Arundel County police are seeking information on two juvenile suspects involved in an armed robbery Sunday evening in Brooklyn Park.

Shortly before 6 p.m., two juveniles—approximately 10 years of age—approached a 7-year-old boy behind West Meadow Road, and pushed him off his bicycle. As one suspect took the bike, the other displayed a knife to the victim's 10-year-old brother, who was also present.

Police said neither of the victims was injured in the incident.

The first suspect fled on the victim's bicycle and the second fled on a bicycle he was already riding, both heading toward Baltimore City.

Patrols in the area searched for the suspects, but failed to locate them.

Anyone with information may contact Metro Crime Stoppers at 866-7LOCKUP or text “MCS" plus your message to CRIMES (274637). Phone calls are not recorded and callers remain anonymous.
