Police are hunting for three robbers who held up a teen in a Kennewick store bathroom.
The 15-year-old was on a walk when he stopped at Yoke’s Fresh Market to use the restroom around 4:30 p.m., said Kennewick police in a Facebook post.
Three young men followed him into the restroom, threatened him with a weapon and demanded items from him.

Police are hoping to identify the three suspects from store surveillance video.
The suspect with the weapon wore a black hooded sweatshirt. Another wore a red sweatshirt and had dirty blond hair. The third had short dreadlocks and orange or red pants.
