The Pima County Sheriff’s Department said the arrests were from the burglary at SNG Tactical, located near Palo Verde and Ajo in Pima County, on Oct. 8.
The PCSD said the juveniles, 14 to 17 years old, were taken into custody and several stolen firearms were recovered.
It is unclear if the suspects were also connected to the break-in at Elite Guns & Ammo, located near Broadway and Camino Seco in Tucson, on Oct. 5.
The burglaries happened in the same week, and the suspects used a vehicle to crash into the building before stealing firearms.
