Arrest made in ice cream shop robbery
Monday, November 9, 2009
WENATCHEE — Police have arrested a 22-year-old East Wenatchee man they say told investigators he robbed the Baskin-Robbins ice cream shop Jan. 11.
An 18-year-old employee was alone in the store, 1025 N. Mission St., shortly after 7 p.m. when someone walked in with a white bandana over his face and demanded the money from the cash register, said Wenatchee Police Sgt. Cherie Smith. The employee gave him a couple hundred dollars, she said.
The man was booked into the Chelan County Regional Justice Center on suspicion of first-degree robbery.

This person is 22 years old. Why aren't you listing his name? You just listed the name of a local 14 year old boy charged with arson, but won't list this persons name. Very consistant with the reporting like normal...

We only name folks once they've been charged, not just when they're arrested. Hope that answers your question!

If there was more to tell, I'm sure they would've elaborated, smalltown. But apparently, you would like them to add a lot of BS and extra words for you to read? I prefer concise reporting like the above, myself.

If there is no more to the story than the above story, i would prefer that this story not make the paper at all. This story sucks.
