Teen accused of robbing minor at gunpoint in Thurston Co. after online messages

An 18-year-old man has been accused of robbing a minor at gunpoint near a Lacey transit center. The teen attended his preliminary appearance in Thurston County Superior Court on Thursday, and prosecutors charged him Monday with first-degree robbery while armed with a firearm. Lacey police arrested him Nov. 4 on suspicion of first-degree robbery and assault following a three-week investigation. The alleged robbery occurred at about 7:15 p.m. Oct. 13 near the Intercity Transit Center in Lacey. The 15-year-old minor told police he got into a vehicle expecting a ride home. Instead, the driver allegedly took him a short distance from the transit center, and two occupants robbed him with Glock pistols in hand, according to a probable cause statement filed with the court. The minor reportedly gave them his backpack, which held his schoolwork, school supplies, a school-issued Chromebook, a sweatshirt, a wireless charger and $400 in cash, per the statement. Then he said he got out of the vehicle and walked back to the transit center. The minor’s mother told police she was there when her son got into the vehicle.
