MISHAWAKA — Two teenagers were arrested Saturday night, police say, after they donned masks and robbed a grocery store of cigarettes.

Police report that the two boys, ages 14 and 16, entered Dorbin’s Supermarket, 900 S. Union St., just after 2 p.m. Saturday.

The boys, covering their faces with black bandannas, reached across the checkout counter, grabbed a pack of Kool cigarettes and then ran out the door.

An officer driving by noticed the teens running from the store and caught both teens, who were arrested and taken to the Juvenile Justice Center.
