Police have arrested a group of youths in relation to a robbery after they were apprehended by an off-duty police officer on January 19.
Police were called to a business at Main St, Narangba, about 7pm after an off duty police officer from Deception Bay police station and members of the public had detained three people who had entered the store with their faces covered and attempted to remove alcohol without paying for it.
A 61-year-old man from Narangba was assaulted, when he was allegedly pulled to the ground while trying to prevent the youths from leaving. He received minor injuries and was treated at the scene.
It is also alleged the mother of one of the youths threatened people with a metal bar. She was also arrested.
A 16-year-old male from Camp Mountain was charged with armed robbery, face masked, blackened or disguised with intent to commit an indictable offence and serious assault of a person over 60.
