Quick action by North Precinct Flex officers led to the arrest of two teenage brothers for Friday's robbery of a 74-year-old Nashville man.
Kemontanez Armstrong, 18, is in the Metro Jail on charges of aggravated robbery and aggravated assault. His brother 15-year-old brother is being held in juvenile detention for the same crimes.
The robbery victim reported that he was outside his house just after 9:30 a.m. when he was approached by the teens, who he later identified as the Armstrong brothers.
One of the brothers initially asked him for a light before demanding he throw his wallet on the ground.
The elderly man said that both teens were armed with pistols. The robbers took the man's wallet and left.
Minutes later, the teens showed up in another yard on Haynes Street in North Nashville.
The 46-year-old resident ordered them to leave.
One of the suspects told the man he did "not want any of this," as he showed him his pistol. The man then walked away from the two brothers.
North Flex and patrol officers moved into the area and set up a perimeter. A police canine team ran a track and led officers to the 2000 block of Baptist World Center Drive.
A door to door canvas led to the discovery of the Armstrong brothers in one of the homes.
They were taken into custody and a search of the brothers' bedroom led to the recovery of the robbery victim's wallet and two pistols concealed in a bed.
