Plymouth Police capture two juveniles in Park Side Mini-Mart burglary

Tuesday night, Plymouth Police captured two juveniles who allegedly broke into the Park Side Mini-Mart at 1717 North Michigan Street.   

City police officers were dispatched to the North Michigan Street business at 10:48 p.m. because the front door glass had been smashed out, and the suspects were possibly inside.

Officers arrived and learned that a store employee arrived as the suspects fled. The store employee chased the suspects with his vehicle and struck one of them. The suspects fled into the Northgate Trailer park on foot.

Plymouth Police officers and Marshall County deputies set up a perimeter. Plymouth Police K-9 Castor was deployed and began tracking the suspects. Castor tracked the suspects to the northwest, where they were taken into custody. 

The suspects were found to be juveniles, and they were transported to St. Joseph Hospital for treatment and later released to the custody of a parent. 

Plymouth Police are actively investigating this incident. 

Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury, at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
