September 13, 2012 Multiple public safety officers responded at 5:44 p.m. Friday, Sept. 7, to a report of four young teenage males misbehaving at a fast-food restaurant in the 18800 block of Mack near Moross in Grosse Pointe Farms.
The incident spilled onto adjacent Kerby Field, where a knife was recovered, and a nearby residential neighborhood.
Officers arrested the quartet, all 14 years old from Detroit.
Three suspects are accused of resisting arrest and possessing stolen T-shirts. All four were charged with disorderly conduct.
Police didn't say where the shirts were stolen.
The fourth suspect was charged with possession of a dangerous weapon, a knife.
"(He) dropped a handful of T-shirts and ran toward the Farms public works complex," said an officer.
The Shores' newest hire, Officer, Justin Reeves, sworn in last month, provided mutual aid.
"I assisted conducting yard-to-yard searches for the lone suspect still at large," Reeves said.
"(The teen) was caught on Hillcrest," said a Farms officer.
"He was apprehended in a rear yard," Reeves said.
The youth admitted ditching a folding razor knife in the playfield.
"(He) admitted it was his and that he carries it for protection," said an officer.
Two suspects were on bicycles. A mother of one suspect said her son doesn't own a bike. She suspected the bikes were stolen.
