Three teens who were arrested Sunday on armed robbery and carjacking charges were released three days later on monitoring devices, Hamilton Township police said Friday. Two 15-year-old boys from Pleasantville and a 16-year-old from Atlantic City allegedly held a gun to a cabdriver's head after he drove them from Pleasantville to Mays Landing. https://breakingac.com/three-teens-allegedly-robbed-cabdriver-stole-cab/ At their destination, the teens allegedly held a gun to the cabdriver's head. The unnamed man fled the cab, which the teens then drove off with. The cab was found abandoned with the teens nearby along with a loaded gun. On Wednesday, they were released on the Home Electronic Detention System, or HEDS. The same teens were arrested by Pleasantville police in February following a car chase in a vehicle that turned out to be stolen from Atlantic City, police said. The teens also were suspects in the robbery of an Atlantic City store.
