Police have arrested a 16-year-old male who entered a liquor store in the 1000 block of Main Street armed with a handgun and concealing his identity.
The youth entered the liquor store at about 2:20 p.m. on Thursday and confronted staff and several patrons with a handgun. He robbed the store of merchandise, and also robbed one of the customers, before fleeing.
Police arrested the suspect about 10 minutes later near the Redwood Bridge.
The youth faces a host of charges including three counts of armed robbery using a firearm, six counts of pointing a firearm, and disguise with intent.
