An Orange County teenager has been arrested after authorities say they robbed acquaintances at BB gunpoint.
The 16-year-old, who resides in Lake of the Woods, arranged to purchase items from their acquaintances who also live in the gated community on July 12, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
“Upon meeting with the other juveniles, the suspect brandished what appeared to be a firearm — later identified as a BB gun — and took the items without payment,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.
The 16-year-old was taken into custody the following morning.
Their identity has not be disclosed to the public, as is typical in cases involving juveniles.
