Seattle police recovered stolen condoms and a shotgun after an armed robbery Monday night. They arrested three teenage boys.
According to a post on the SPD Blotter, the robbery happened around 10 p.m. at a convenience store near 122nd and Aurora Avenue North.
Police said all the boys are 16 years old and that one of them reportedly stole several boxes of condoms. As he ran out, one of the other boys inside a getaway car allegedly pointed a gun at the manager when he tried to stop him. The manager called 911.
When police caught up with the getaway car, they said the driver threw it in reverse and rammed one of their vehicles.

Three girls, between the ages of 15 and 16, were also in the car. They were detained but later released.
“According to the police report, ‘All three (suspects) repeatedly kicked their doors, called law officers names, and screamed for sustained periods of time,'” the blotter post said. “They were also heard at the scene bragging about ‘being out tomorrow.’”
Police booked the boys into juvenile detention for robbery at the Judge Patricia H. Clark Children and Family Justice Center. Two of them were also booked for possession of a stolen firearm, according to the blotter post.
