Two juveniles, who could be as young as 10 years old, were part of a trio who followed a woman home and robbed her in her driveway, Menomonee Falls police said Thursday. Police released video and still images from the Dec. 8 incident that was captured on the woman's home security system. In the video provided to WISN 12 News, the woman pulled into her driveway, and seconds later, a red car passed. As the woman opened her SUV door, the red car circled around and stopped on the opposite side of Joper Road across from the woman's home. Two juveniles, who police said were a boy and girl, got out and spoke to the woman, who was with her young daughter. No audio was attached to the video, but police said the juveniles forcibly took the woman's purse off her arm.

Surprised they showed the minors' faces and gave full descriptions.

I don’t imagine it will be difficult to find the culprits, once the pictures are widely disseminated.

I thought Menominee Falls was a good neighborhood.

The answer to the question in your minds:

One of the pair IS, and the other is NOT.

Descriptions of all 3, the car and the license number. Couldn’t ask for much than that. So the white kid had a knife?

Awhile back I saw a list of common places where people get robbed. The ATM, etc. But also on that list was “your own driveway”. That surprised me.

But I guess when you are just getting into or out of your car, you’re not paying too much attention to your surroundings.

I see they are being taught how to use a hoodie. Such cute little thugs.

There has recently been an outbreak of driveway robberies in the Dallas area. Several have been arrested so far.

Yes, I’ve been pondering if it’s better to have a closed garage or not. Once your drive in and close the door, you’re basically locked in with the bad guy who sneaked in before the door was lowered.

That looked like a really safe neighborhood and it probably is. But two little kids with no weapons robbing an adult woman? I don’t know about that.....I wish there were more to that video

Suspect No. 1: white female,
Suspect No. 2: black male
Suspect No. 3 (driver): Hispanic female

I guess diversity really is their strength.

Then it all depends on how prepared you are.

More of a grab and dash than the typical strong arm style robbery.

Kids talk to the woman to put her at ease...they’re just a couple of pre-teens asking a question, maybe need directions, right? - once her guard is down, grab the purse and run. Leap in the car and speed off.

Car was stolen. Want to guess as to how old the driver was?

They had it all worked out; spot, follow, position for escape, approach, the line, weapons(?), the grab, failed attempt drill, escape. Young as they are, these are not amateurs.

If they live to be bigger, they will just assault her (or worse) and take the purse.

No mercy.

She should have been able to kick their butts and held at least the girl.

Yup. And the rich white kids in those areas have drugs delivered to them by Milwaukee dealers.
