Two Juvenile Suspects Arrested Months After Riverside Gas Station Robbery

A long-running investigation into a commercial robbery at a gas station in Riverside has culminated in the arrest of two young suspects. The arrests, made in August 2025, follow a search that began after the initial incident occurred in late April of the same year.

The Initial Robbery and Search

The incident began on April 23, 2025, when two juvenile suspects allegedly entered a gas station convenience store in Riverside. According to police reports, the suspects confronted the employee on duty and took items from the store before fleeing the scene. Officers launched an immediate search, releasing descriptions of the two children believed to be involved in the robbery and asking for the community's help in identifying them.

Arrests Made After Investigation

Following months of detective work, follow-ups on community tips, and coordination between local law enforcement agencies, the two juvenile suspects were located and placed under arrest in mid-August 2025. Both individuals are now facing charges related to commercial burglary and robbery in connection with the incident.

The Riverside Police Department thanked the public for their assistance during the search, noting that community cooperation played an important role in tracking down the suspects and resolving the case.
