Armed robbery suspects in custody

(KAIR)--Two suspects are in custody following a Wednesday morning pursuit that came after what authorities say was an armed robbery.

According to a news release from the Platte County Sheriff’s Office, that agency was contacted by Leavenworth Police, shortly before 7:00 Wednesday morning, that they were in pursuit of a stolen Toyota Tundra, possibly occupied by robbery suspects.

Leavenworth Police lost sight of the stolen vehicle, which was later located in Farley, Missouri by Platte County deputies.

The area was searched, with the two suspects located and taken into custody.

Platte County Sheriff Mark Owen, in the release, credits Farley residents for providing information that helped lead to the arrests.

Names of the suspects are not immediately made public.
