The six teenagers were accused of assaulting and robbing their victims in the business district over a span of approximately an hour before they were apprehended by police with the help of Big Brother.
According to police, the department’s series of surveillance cameras that have been strategically located throughout the city played a key role in apprehending the suspects.
The assaults began at approximately 10 p.m., Saturday, on Union Avenue, where the six teens reportedly attempted to rob a man who would later be treated for a head wound. The group then took off toward Center Avenue, where they unsuccessfully attempted a second robbery near the intersection at Huguenot Street.
Rayner Felice, Eduardo Mangana, both 18, 17-year old Manual Aguilar and Osmari Rodriguez and Jonathan Jeanty, each 16-years-old, were arrested and each faces a pair of second-degree robbery, attempted robbery and assault charges. A sixth, unidentified suspect, remains on the loose.
The suspects were arraigned in City Court on Monday.
