Two juvenile girls suspected of robbing a DU student have been arrested by the Denver Police Department (DPD) according to Sgt. Stephen Banet of the Department of Campus Safety (DCS).

Banet said he found out about the arrests on Tuesday, March 17, which was roughly two and a half weeks after the robbery. According to Banet, the two girls were arrested after they were identified by their crime flyer pictures taken from the Regional Transportation District (RTD).

Because the girls are juveniles, no names or other information was released.
The robbery occurred on March 5 while a student was walking on the 1900 block of South High Street. She was approached by the two females, one of whom pushed the student to the ground while the other held her at knifepoint and demanded her purse.

The girls were described as being young, white females, roughly ages 16-18. They were with two unidentified males, who have not been arrested in connection with the crime, according to Banet.
