Two teenagers from San Luis Obispo County were arrested in Scottsdale, Ariz., accused of taking several people hostage in what authorities have described as a, attempted home invasion robbery.
According to news reports police responded to a 9-1-1 call at 10:44 a.m. Sunday, Feb. 1 at a home in Scottsdale.
Officers arrived to find an alleged home invasion robbery in progress, with one suspect struggling with a male resident and a woman screaming for help.
The two suspects reportedly fled out the back door when officers arrived and drove away but were soon caught after they turned down a dead-end street at a local strip mall, and were arrested.
According to reports, police said the two juvenile suspects allegedly posed as delivery service employees. They reportedly forced their way into the home with three people inside at the time.
Scottsdale police said the suspects restrained two of the victims in the home and the third victim hid in the residence.
According to one report, police are planning to charge the pair as adults and charges include suspicion of kidnapping, burglary, criminal impersonation, disorderly conduct, felony flight and three counts of aggravated assault.
The two were identified as Skylar LaPaille, 16 of Morro Bay and Jackson Sullivan, 17 of San Luis Obispo.
