STAFF at a Cranbourne bottle shop were threatened with knives and forced to hand over cash last week.
Three males entered the Beer Wine and Spirits store at 10.10pm on 7 May and one staff member was forced to the ground while the second was threatened with a knife and asked to hand over cash and cigarettes.
The three offenders fled on foot, but were later arrested, along with three other people, a short distance away from the store.
A 16-year-old Chadstone male and 15-year-old Keysborough male were charged and remanded in custody. They were due to face the Melbourne Children’s Court this week, police said.
A 20-year-old woman from Dandenong, a 15-year-old female from Doveton, an 18-year-old male from Dandenong North and a 17-year-old female from Dandenong North were all released pending summons.
