They saw two young suspects running and gave chase on foot, he said.

The police arrested the young suspects, found one had two bags of heroin.

On 9 November, the police reported that the younger suspect was set free and no longer considered a suspect.

They said their youngest suspect recently was an 11-year-old from the Bronx who had $300 worth of crack and $200 in his pockets.

The two younger suspects came to the home after being neglected or abandoned, he said.

Four young suspects have been arrested, and the officials said four more are being sought.

First, our youngest suspect, Frank Smith, had been only fifteen years old at the time.

However, since he told this bit of personal information to a young suspect in "the box", it might not be true.

The youngest suspects in these cases were 14 years old, and most were under 21.

The youngest suspect, an 11-year-old, was apparently holding drugs for another defendant, a police spokesman said.
