According to Tulsa police, a group of high school students were captured on camera while attempting to rob various Walmart stores across the state. The teenagers were seen passing notes to the store clerks, claiming to be armed with a gun and demanding money.
According to Robbery Detective Justin Ritter, a group of teenagers from Midwest City – presumably from the same high school – were caught after successfully executing their plan a few times. “It turns out they were some kids who developed this plan and it worked for them until they got caught,” he stated.
According to the police, the individual wearing the dark blue hoodie is believed to be in possession of a firearm. According to reports, the teenagers have been engaging in this activity since the summer. Detectives were first alerted to their actions at that time.
According to Ritter, the teenagers targeted numerous stores, spanning across Ponca City, Bristow, Tulsa, and Glenpool, and managed to steal thousands of dollars worth of merchandise. In Tulsa and Glenpool, they were apprehended in the act of shoplifting from a Walmart store.
According to Ritter, the suspects who were involved in the incident at South Memorial on the twenty-second, drove up to Glenpool and began to case the place while the management was in a meeting discussing the recent incidents. Authorities have identified all of the suspects involved in the case, and police suspect that there may be additional individuals who could be apprehended.
