On Saturday, November 18, 2017, at approximately 3:16 p.m., an armed robbery occurred at the GT Vapor store located at N112W15800 Mequon Road. Two suspects, one armed with a black handgun, entered the store, confronted a store employee, and took property by force.

The suspects fled the area in a black 2009-2014 Chevy Aveo with minor damage to the front of the car, unknown license plate number. As the suspects were fleeing the area, a GPD officer attempted to use a tire deflation device on the suspect’s vehicle.
The suspects aimed their vehicle towards the officer almost striking him. The officer was not injured. A vehicle pursuit occurred, but was later terminated by Germantown Officers because of the high speeds and the pursuing officer lost sight of the vehicle.
This armed robbery might be related to other robberies that have occurred recently in SE Wisconsin. No further information will be released at this time due to the pending investigation and multiple agencies that are involved.
