Amsterdam teens arrested in home robbery

Amsterdam Police responded to a call of a robbery in progress at the McClellan Ave. home at around 10:40 a.m. Thursday, and later located the getaway vehicle at the high school.

After some further investigation, including information from witnesses, police had four teens in custody, one of whom was a juvenile and the only Amsterdam High School student.

Police say the group apparently targeted the home after receiving information there was $5,000 in cash inside the home. Three of them displayed a gun after entering the house, while one carried a hammer. Each was wearing a mask over his face, police said.

The teens took a PlayStation and a cell phone from the home, though police have not recovered the items. The handgun was not recovered, but the hammer was found inside the getaway car owned by one of the suspects, Josh Terrero.
