Two suspects were taken into custody after a robbery at a Briar Forest convenience store around 12:30 p.m., investigators said.



Officers said they attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but the suspects led officers on a short pursuit before running from the vehicle near Upland and Sherwood.

The entrance of the apartment complex is completely blocked off, and neighbors cannot drive in through the gates.
