The victim, who had just completed an Uber Eats delivery, reported that two individuals wearing ski masks robbed him of his vehicle.

Upon approach, one suspect fled on foot, prompting a chase during which officers noticed the suspect clutching his waistband.
The suspect, a 15-year-old juvenile male, was apprehended in the backyard of 237 Cumming Highway.
