Fergus Falls robbery call turns into disorderly conduct involving juveniles

Detroit Lakes, Minn. (KDLM) – The Fergus Falls Police Department responded to what initially appeared to be a report of a potential robbery at the Dollar Tree on Tuesday evening, but the call ended up a case of juvenile mischief.

On August 8th, 5:27 p.m., the Fergus Falls Police Department received a report of four juvenile masked males entering the Fergus Falls Dollar Tree store on Lincoln Avenue.

The juveniles were observed wearing nylon stockings over their heads and faces, which caused alarm among some store patrons.

Upon arrival, officers determined that the incident was not a robbery, but a case of disorderly conduct involving kids.

The Fergus Falls police officers cited all four juveniles for disorderly conduct.

The individuals were then released to the custody of their parents, who were informed by police of the incident.
