Juveniles driving violent crime wave in Washington D.C.
An attempted robbery at knifepoint this week in Washington D.C. led to the arrests of two underage suspects, one of whom was just 9 years old, according to authorities.
The shocking incident unfolded at around 12:40 a.m. on Friday in the nation’s capital.
A woman was attacked in the northeast quadrant of the city by two male suspects.
One of the suspects assaulted the victim and tried to grab her purse, prompting her to defend herself with pepper spray.
The other suspect then pulled a knife and attempted to stab the woman multiple times but was unsuccessful.
The woman called 911 and responding officers quickly apprehended the suspects near the scene.
“A 9-year-old juvenile male and a 13-year-old juvenile male, both of Northeast, DC, were arrested and charged with Assault with Intent to Commit Robbery While Armed (Knife),” the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) announced in a press release.

InfoWars has been documenting the surge of crime in Washington D.C., much of which is being committed by minors.
Last week, a 12-year-old boy was arrested following a chain of events that saw multiple victims injured during a violent robbery and carjacking back in September.
In 2023, 62% of suspects arrested for carjackings in the nation’s capital were juveniles, according to MPD data.
