WYOMING, Mich. — Two suspects have been arrested and a third is at-large after police say an Amazon delivery van was robbed at gunpoint in Rockford Monday.
Officers from the Rockford Department of Public Safety were called to the area of Oak Street and James Street around 12:50 p.m. after a suspect approached an Amazon delivery truck at gunpoint.
The Amazon driver was not injured during this incident.
One suspect fled the scene in the Amazon truck, while two other suspects left in what officers later learned was a stolen vehicle, all making their way south.
Police had reason to believe that people and vehicles related to that armed robbery ended up in the 2600 block of Riley SW in the City of Wyoming, where there was a heavy police presence.
Two of the suspects and the stolen cars were found in Wyoming, where a perimeter has been set up by police.
After the scene was secured by police, a search warrant was obtained and executed at 2662 Riley SW.
At the scene, police found the two stolen cars, as well as a gun that they believe was used by the suspects.
Both arrested suspects are lodged in the Kent County Jail.
“We thank our colleagues in the City of Wyoming, City of Grand Rapids, Kent County, and Michigan State Police for their critical help in apprehending the suspects,” Lt. Aaron Sawyer with the Rockford Department of Public Safety said. “Their swift action and professionalism ended this conflict with no one harmed. We’ll continue to work alongside them as we investigate the matter further.”
Anyone with information regarding this incident has been asked by police to call the Rockford or Wyoming departments of public safety or Silent Observer.
