WOODBRIDGE, VA—Two teen boys were arrested Saturday, April 6, for robbing two restaurants that week on Dale Boulevard and Prince William Parkway, according to Prince William County Police. The boys, 16 and 17, were both charged with one count of armed robbery, one count of attempted armed robbery, two counts of use of a firearm in commission of a felony and two counts of conspiracy to commit a felony.

Shortly before 10:15 p.m. on April 5, two masked individuals entered a Chick-fil-A on Prince William Parkway, flashed a gun and took an undisclosed amount of money from the cash register. On April 1, they attempted the same thing at a McDonald's on Dale Boulevard before fleeing empty handed.

They were found and arrested after an investigation linked them to both robberies.
