Anne Arundel County Police are searching for two masked teenage suspects who robbed a 17-year-old boy in Pasadena Friday evening, making off with his wallet and personal items before fleeing the scene on an electric bike.
The robbery occurred around 7:30 p.m. in the area of Chestnut Cove Drive and Springhouse Lane. According to police, the two suspects were dressed in all-black clothing and wearing black ski masks when they approached the victim.
The teens attempted to rip the victim’s fanny pack from his body. When that effort failed, one suspect reached into the open pouch of the pack and grabbed the victim’s wallet and additional property before both suspects fled on the electric bike.
Officers responded to the scene shortly after the incident but were unable to locate the suspects during a search of the surrounding area. No injuries were reported.
