VIENNA, Ill. — Three individuals were arrested in connection with an armed robbery that took place last week at a Family Dollar store in Vienna. The suspects were apprehended following a traffic stop in Waterloo, Illinois.
Vienna Police Chief Jim Miller reported that the arrests were made after a hit was detected on a license plate reader in Murphysboro and Paducah. The Marion Police Department assisted in gathering information, which led to the vehicle being traced to Waterloo.

Following interviews with the suspects, Chief Miller confirmed that they were extradited back to southern Illinois for further processing.
