Thursday morning, detectives showed up at Sierra Middle School and took the suspect into custody. He’s said to be 12 years old, not 11 as originally believed by police investigators.

Surveillance cameras captured the whole attempted robbery on video. The boy was wearing a bandana over his face and pointed a gun at the clerk, demanding money.

The clerk did not hand over any cash, however, and instead called over to another employee in the back. The boy then left the store on a skateboard.
