March 8, 2024 (Minneapolis): With the help of concerned parents, the Minneapolis Police Department arrested three juveniles believed to be involved in robbery sprees involving carjackings, robberies, and auto thefts in February and March.
On March 7th, 2024, Minneapolis police arrested a 15-year-old male, a 16-year-old male with 7 outstanding warrants, and a 17-year-old female.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara says the arrests are the direct result of the excellent work of MPD investigators who have been working around the clock to gather evidence and identify suspects. O’Hara also said family members’ willingness to share information with MPD investigators was key to apprehending the suspects.
“These violent crimes take seconds to commit, take a team of investigators dozens of hours to process, and can leave victims with lasting trauma”, said Chief Brian O’Hara. “To end this cycle and to bring an end to the senseless violence in our communities, the MPD needs everyone in the process to help hold these individuals accountable. That includes parents and caregivers. I am thankful to the families who have stepped up and are working on behalf of their children to ensure that the right actions are taken, and their children receive the support they need. This cooperation may very well save these kids' lives.”
