FLORENCE- Ravalli County deputies have arrested three Florence teenage boys accused of holding up the Town Pump in Florence early Sunday morning.

Ravalli County Sheriff Chris Hoffman said the suspects, two 16 year olds and a 17-year-old, are in custody, and added deputies have recovered a shotgun they believe was used in the crime.

An employee told deputies both suspects walked behind the counter and one of the teens pointed the weapon at the clerk and demanded money.

When the clerk could not get the cash, the suspects took several packages of cigarettes and left the area on foot.
