Juvenile Knifepoint Robbery Suspect Charged

Police have arrested a juvenile female and charged her with the July 5 armed robbery of a teenage couple in Baltimore Highlands, according to officials.

At around 11:45 p.m., a 17-year old male who lives in Baltimore Highlands and a 14-year-old female from Catonsville were walking at Delaware and Washington Avenues when they were approached from behind by another teen male and female couple, police said.

The male suspect grabbed the male victim from behind in a choke hold and displayed a knife, according to police. The suspects took the male victim's hat and shoes because he had no money, police said. The female victim gave up her cell phone, according to police.

The female suspect was caught by police the same night as the robbery, according to police spokesperson Cpl. Cathleen Batton.

A warrant has been issued for the male suspect, according to police.
