The Frisco Police Department is requesting public assistance to investigate a robbery that took place at the Frisco Athletic Center on June 29. Law enforcement officials shared details regarding the incident through a social media post on Wednesday, urging residents to provide any information that could help resolve the case.

According to police, officers responded to a call around 8 p.m. regarding a robbery involving a firearm in the parking lot of the athletic center. Investigators determined that the crime followed a pre-arranged meeting between the involved parties. The suspects departed the scene in a blue and white Ford Bronco before law enforcement arrived.

Officers later located the Bronco at a fast-food restaurant a few miles from the athletic center. The vehicle had been identified as belonging to a nearby resident. While police interviewed the occupants of the Bronco, they discovered that the individual possessing the handgun was not present in the vehicle.

A preliminary investigation conducted by detectives and school resource officers revealed that the individuals involved are juveniles enrolled in the Frisco Independent School District. Police stated that all parties identified in the incident will be held accountable for their actions.

Frisco is about 9 miles west of Allen.

The department is asking anyone with information about the case or related offenses to contact them. Residents can call 972-292-6010 to report tips. Anonymous information can also be submitted by texting FRISCOPD and the tip to 847411 or by using the Frisco PD app.

Further details regarding the specific charges or the status of the juveniles involved are not yet clear.
