Detectives announced Friday that three search warrants were served in connection with a robbery and drive-by shooting in West Seattle that happened in early March.
Two teenage suspects were arrested and evidence was seized linking the suspects to the robbery.
The incident in question occurred March 10. One of the suspects allegedly robbed another man at gunpoint during a drug deal in West Seattle, stealing the drugs, his phone and jacket. The suspect and two accomplices then assaulted the victim before fleeing.
Several days later, a drive-by shooting occurred at the victim's residence. The victim believes it was done by the same men from the robbery.
Detectives had been investigating and served the search warrants Friday morning.
The suspects, both 16 years old, were taken into custody and booked into Youth Services Center. Police are still searching for the third.
