Police are investigating an armed robbery that occurred Sunday afternoon in the Bagley Downs neighborhood.
Vancouver police responded to Plomondon Street and General Anderson Avenue around 1:15 p.m. Witnesses reported that a juvenile was robbed by several teenage males earlier in the afternoon, and at least one of the teens was armed with what appeared to be a handgun, according to a Vancouver Police Department news release.
One of the teens was located and arrested without incident inside a Burger King, 5000 N.E. Fourth Plain Blvd, according to the release.
A witness also claimed that one of the teen’s accomplices was hiding in a bathroom inside the restaurant, the release said. SWAT officers and hostage negotiators responded before it was discovered that the bathroom was empty.
