NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Police say two teenagers were arrested overnight following an armed robbery on Lincoya Bay Drive after quick coordination between Robbery Operations detectives and Hermitage Precinct officers.
16-year-old Kenneth Jordan and 14-year-old Mykel Couch were taken into custody after allegedly stealing a victim's cell phone and bank card.
The victim reported tracking his stolen phone to a location on Dickerson Pike, where officers found the teens in a stolen vehicle with a broken back passenger window.
