Teen Arrested, Another Sought In Home-Invasion Robbery

Police: Teens Armed In Attack In Affluent Subdivision

POSTED: 11:58 am EDT June 29, 2009

Police said Monday they arrested a teen in connection with a violent home-invasion robbery of a couple in their Center Grove home on June 21.

The Johnson County Sheriff's Department said Marcus Antonio Artego, 17, was one of two teens involved in the robbery.

Detectives said Artego was arrested after tips were received from the public. Last week, police released surveillance pictures of the suspects from an Indianapolis Speedway gas station.

Police are still searching for the other person involved.

Investigators said the teens had guns when they entered the home, in an affluent subdivision, under cover of darkness.

The teens assaulted one of the victims. Even though he is a minor, Artego's name was released because he will be charged as an adult.
