3 Juveniles Have Been Arrested In Relation To A US Bank Heist

Three young boys have been arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on Tuesday, March 19, for allegedly carrying out a bank heist in Texas, USA.

Photos of three small young who were allegedly involved in a bank robbery at a Wells Fargo branch in the Greenspoint suburb were first released by the FBI's Houston bureau on Thursday, March 12.

With over 10 million views, the bureau's social media post that called the accused “little rascals” went viral.

The bank's security photos, which showed the juvenile suspects, were posted.

“Recognize these 'little rascals'? Believe it or not, they just robbed the Wells Fargo at 10261 North Freeway.

“If you know who and where they are contact police immediately or @crimestophou at 713-222-TIPS,” the post read.

From up close, one boy was visible wearing a white hoodie, while the other two were dressed in black or dark blue hoodies, one of which showed off his black hair and brilliant green lining inside.

The young men appeared to be between 14 and 18 years old, according to witnesses who told investigators they had left the area on foot. The precise quantity of money seized, if any, was not made public, though.

The teeny miscreants were apprehended, and the FBI verified this on Tuesday. Their ages were disclosed as 11, 12, and 16.

Their identities were kept a secret due to their juvenile age, and they are accused of robbery by threat locally.

“All three bank robbery suspects known as the 'little rascals' are in custody.

“They are 11, 12, and 16 years old, charged locally with robbery by threat. Because they are juveniles, their names and no additional details will be released,” the FBI's post read.
