YOUNG ROBBERS 
Boys aged 13-14 have been charged with 7 bank robberies
 Boys aged 13-14 (barely in their teens)have been charged with 7 bank robberies. They were arrested in their home town Suburb south of the city, in Canada. A criminologist who researches violent young offenders said he has "never seen anything like this before".
They are pending a hearing in youth court in two weeks. 
The crime expert says the holdups appear to be well planned and disciplined. He says most young people who try such crimes  tend to be impulsive and angry- and they tend to brag to their friends, so they get caught quickly. They have been charged of actually robbing the banks in only 6 weeks. We havent found any evidence saying if they were armed
