Teen armed robbery suspect told off by mother, grandma in the back of cop car

A RUN-IN with police was the least of this 16-year-old boy’s conces.

Not only did the teen’s mother tu him in for attempted armed robbery, she teamed up with the boy’s grandmother to tell him off as he sat in the police car.

“What did you do? You did do something. You wouldn’t be in this police car,” the teen’s furious grandmother was caught on camera screaming.

“What did you do? Take your butt to school and this wouldn’t happen, would it.”

She demanded an explanation after cops claimed two armed suspects tried to rob a petrol station in Houston, Texas.

“I noticed one of the guys so I brought the one guy back — the one that I noticed — and tued him in,” the suspect’s mother, Deandra, told Eyewitness News.

Deandra said she thought her “well-dressed” son had been at a job interview with a friend.

But when she discovered police were looking for her son, she took him to the scene.

“People work too hard for their stuff and somebody is going to shoot you,” Deandra said.

“I don’t want to see that, I don’t want to see that. I want for the best, and if this is what it takes for him to get help, let him get some help.”

Police said the 16- and 15-year-old boys could face attempted robbery charges.
