A short time later the suspects robbed two individuals walking in the 700 block of S. Good Latimer at gunpoint. Again, two of the suspects pointed handguns at the suspects and demanded their property. Police say one of the victims sprayed the suspects with mace before fleeing on foot.

Shortly after three teenage males fitting the suspect’s description and a female suspect were caught on camera inside the 7-11 store at 4104 Gaston Avenue where two of the suspects “cleansed themselves with milk,” according to police.

The suspects left the store in a dark-colored sedan driven by the female suspect.
