A group of three juveniles called the "little rascals" are in custody as of Tuesday after allegedly robbing a bank in Houston last week. The FBI says the three suspects, ages 11, 12 and 16, allegedly robbed a Wells Fargo in the Houston suburb of Greenpoint on March 14 around 3 pm local time.
It is unclear how much money was stolen or whether any weapons were involved. The Houston Chronicle reported that the trip fled the scene on foot. The FBI says the children will be charged with robbery by threat.
"They approached a teller and demanded money," Connor Hagan, a spokesperson with FBI Houston, told KPRC. "Anecdotally, it's the youngest robbery crew I've seen based on all the pictures we've put out."
The FBI will not be releasing the names or any additional details of the suspects due to their ages.
