HOUSTON (AP) — Three boys, ages 11, 12 and 16, and dubbed the “Little Rascals," have been arrested for robbing a bank in Houston, authorities confirmed Wednesday.

Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said the youngsters are in custody and have been charged with robbery by threat. Gonzalez said that because of their ages, no additional information would be released, and the sheriff's office didn't immediately respond to a request for more information.

The FBI’s Houston office says they were wanted for robbing a Wells Fargo bank in the Greenspoint area of north Houston on March 14. The FBI posted an image of the trio on X, showing all three of them wearing hoodies inside the bank's lobby. A message left with the FBI seeking additional information wasn't immediately returned.

Houston’s ABC 13 reported that the boys passed a threatening note to a teller before fleeing on foot with an undisclosed amount of cash. The station also reported that the parents of two of the boys identified them after their photos were released, while a third boy was recognized by a law enforcement officer following a fight.

Hmm. They don’t consider that when the kids are of no value to the democrats.

I wish they’d stop calling them “The Little Rascals” and just call them Stymie, Cotton and Buckwheat.

the Greenspoint area of north Houston is known as “Gunspoint”.

A no-go area.

Finally kids are getting off their media devices and are going outdoors and getting some exercise.

One of ten thousand sign of the fall of law and order is this lighthearted FBI treatment of a gravely serious matter of very young people committing federal felonies

I live in that area. Most of it is quite nice. The “Guns Point” moniker came from “Greens Point Mall” where someone was murdered in 1990.

The area is far from a No-Go area

That was absolute genius that show. Think how hard that must have been to get toddlers to act a certain way, like Spanky as a baby smashing bugs, or talking on the phone “Hello who is this?” “I don’t know, I can’t see you” Or getting that one baby to constantly say “remarkable”

They were already calling it “Gunspoint” 25 years ago so I can’t imagine how bad it must be now…
