Four teens were arrested Tuesday morning in DeKalb County after carjacking a minivan, police said.
Around 9:40 a.m., a man was robbed at gunpoint at the Spring Chase Apartment complex at 4949 Memorial Drive near Stone Mountain.
Police said four teens also took the man’s Honda Odyssey.
About an hour later, officers spotted the van on Memorial Drive near Rays Road, DeKalb County Police spokesman Capt. Steven Fore said.
The van pulled into the Brannon Hill Apartments and all four teens abandoned it and ran, Fore said.
Officers caught each of the teens in the ensuing foot chase, police said.
The four were believed to have been involved in a previous armed robbery and carjacking, authorities said.
Mamadou Diallo, Jumah Warner, and Christopher Leveles, each 17 years old, were charged with armed robbery, police said.
A 16-year-old also has been charged, but is not being named because he is a minor.
