A 14-year-old Silverdale boy faces a robbery charge following an incident at a Bremerton supermarket.

A shopper told Kitsap County Sheriff's Deputies he witnessed the teenager shoplifting inside the store around 5:30 p.m. on Thursday May 28th and confronted him.

The man said the teenager responded by striking him multiple times and threatening to pull a gun before running toward the exit.

The shopper and a companion pursued the teenager outside, where they held him until deputies arrived.

Deputies searched the boy's backpack and recovered a stolen item from the store. No weapon was found on the teenager or in his possession.

The teenager was booked into the Kitsap County Juvenile Detention Center on suspicion of second-degree robbery.

The charge was elevated to robbery due to the physical assault and the verbal threat made during the incident.
