A gas station in Hartford, Michigan, USA, was robbed yesterday by a 12-year-old gunman. The moment of the robbery was recorded by the security camera at the station. In the footage, after the customer in front of him made the payment, it was heard that the boy pointed the gun at the cashier, which he had hidden under the bag in his hand, and said to the cashier, “Put the money in the bag”. Your cashier says, “Are you serious?” When he said that, the boy fired a hand into the air inside the station.
It was reported that the police took the boy into custody in a short time after the robbery of the gas station named Marathon, one block away from the police station.
THE CHILD HAS EXPLAINED THE ROI TO A FRIEND BEFORE
Police stated that the boy was charged with armed robbery, assault with a dangerous weapon and firing a firearm at the Van Buren County Family Court this week, and said the boy had told a friend from school about the robbery before.
GOT THE WEAPON FROM HIS GRAND FATHER
Stating that the boy got the gun from his grandfather’s locked safe, police said the boy, who is a student at Hartford Middle School, is currently detained at the Allegan County Children’s Center and will be held in custody until a hearing at the end of this month.
CASHER MISTAKE THE Robbery A JOKE
“I thought he was a kid, he’s not even 10 years old,” Jessica, the cashier at the station, told the media. I seriously thought it was a joke until I heard the sound of the gun. “I always thought if I was robbed I would give them the money, no money is worth my life,” he said.
THE CHILDREN DID NOT robbed the station for money.
“I see something new in this job every day. I’ve been a police officer for 38 years. What really surprised me was that he showed no emotion,” said Lieutenant Mike Prince, of the Hartford police. He didn’t tell us what he was doing.”
