Police have arrested two teenagers accused of robbing a mother of two in a Kroger parking lot in Mableton on Thursday, according to warrants obtained by AJC.com.

Cobb County police said four people approached the victim and demanded her car keys, wallet, cellphone and a Michael Kors purse. The stolen items were estimated to be worth more than $1,500.

The victim told police she feared for her life and her children’s safety. When officers arrived at the store on Floyd Road, the woman was shaking and crying.

After taking the victim’s belongings, the suspects used her debit card to pump gas at a nearby QuikTrip. They were driving a stolen 2018 white Subaru, the warrant says.

Robert White, 18, and Daquarius Hixon, 17, were arrested and charged with robbery, criminal damage and fraud. Hixon is in the Cobb jail without bond, while White’s bond was set at $22,250, according to jail records.

The other two suspects are on the run and have not been identified.
