The Delaware State Police have arrested a 15-year-old male and two 16-year-old females, all from Wilmington, Delaware, for a robbery that occurred Thursday afternoon at a Wilmington 7-Eleven.

On March 27, 2025, at approximately 1:15 p.m., troopers responded to 7-Eleven, located at 4865 Governor Printz Boulevard, for a report of a robbery. When troopers arrived, they learned that the three teenage suspects were not allowed in the store because of previous shopliftings. When the store clerk told them to leave, they refused and began removing items from the shelves. When the clerk confronted the suspects again, she tried to take the items from them. The suspects assaulted her and fled the store. The victim was taken to an area hospital with minor injuries.
