Three juveniles were arrested Saturday night for armed robbery after taking a student’s phone and wallet near the Greek Amphitheatre, according to LSU Police Department Spokesman Capt. Cory Lalonde.
The victim called LSUPD around 10 p.m. and said three people approached him with a gun, took his wallet and phone and fled toward State Street, Lalonde said.
LSUPD was able to locate the two 15-year-olds and one 16-year-old on Highland Road near Grant Street, Lalonde said.
LSUPD sent out an emergency text message and email after the report and followed it up after the suspects were arrested.
The suspects were booked in East Baton Rouge Parish Juvenile Detention Center, Lalonde said.
