Police arrested four Manhattan teenagers Friday for a report of violent crimes against a 15-year-old boy.
Banjamin Antonio Chavez Birdwell, 17, was arrested at 3:14 p.m. in the 2100 block of Oak Street; brothers Jamie Earl Ellis Jr., 16, and Isaiah Amos Ellis, 17, were arrested at 8512 Golden Eagle Court; and Benjamin Gael Carranza, 16, was arrested in the 2200 block of Blueberry Drive.
All four boys are charged with aggravated robbery inflicting bodily harm, battery and aggravated assault while disguised to conceal their identities. The Riley County Police Department released them to another facility.
An RCPD spokesman said the charges are connected to an April 28 report at 42 Powerline Place concerning a stolen iPhone and Airpod headphones, with an approximate value of $650.
