“It took those officers being in that area and working with each other, staying on the radio and staying in contact, to be able to locate these (suspects),” he told the news station. “And then we had a police captain that was out there.”

The duo is linked to at least five car break-ins in the upscale Peachtree Battle area on Saturday morning, Chafee said. At one point, the two crashed the car they were traveling in, which was reported stolen, then ran.

According to Channel 2, they attempted to take another vehicle at gunpoint as they were running from officers. Police recovered two guns, which were also reported stolen, during their arrests, the news station reported.

Lorm is being held in the Fulton County Jail on charges of obstruction, criminal attempt to commit armed robbery, criminal attempt to commit carjacking and two counts of theft by receiving stolen property, as well as two weapons-related charges.

The 12-year-old, as a minor, is not being named.
