An 11-year-old child is among the 3 people arrested in armed robberies

An 11-year-old boy was among three suspects arrested in connection with a string of armed robberies at convenience stores and gas stations in the Seattle area, police said.

Seattle police said two men, an 11-year-old, a 21-year-old and a 19-year-old, were charged with four robberies committed within two hours early Friday morning and a fifth robbery Friday night.

Police said the suspects, who were wearing face masks and armed, demanded goods and cash before fleeing in stolen cars.

Police said no one was injured.

Following the fifth robbery Friday night, the suspects led multiple law enforcement agencies on a multi-county car chase, police said.

The suspects eventually stopped the car and fled on foot before being taken into custody without incident, police said Saturday.

The adults were booked into the King County Jail and the 11-year-old boy was taken to Judge Patricia H. Clark. Family Justice Center, police said.

Police said no weapons were seized.
