Two suspects in Irondequoit armed robbery nabbed by local law enforcement

By Billie Owens

Two armed robbery suspects were captured moments ago by local law enforcement officers and taken into custody. The pair is believed to have taken part in an armed robbery in Irondequoit and were fleeing westbound on Route 490 in a 2009 red Chevy Impala.

An APB was issued alerting authorities of the suspect vehicle, and officers were at the Batavia exit in case they exited there, but the car kept going and Sheriff's deputies were posted at the Route 77 exit.

The next information over the scanner was that two people were in custody, so it's not clear at this point just where the arrests took place, although it was in Genesee County.

The vehicle is registered to an individual in Cheektowaga.
