Charges are now filed against three men in connection with a string of gas station robberies in Roseville and Little Canada that prompted an emergency alert on some cell phones over the weekend.
An 18 and 21-year old from St. Paul were arrested and are charged with first degree robbery. A 21-year old White Bear Lake man also is charged but has not yet been arrested.
The robberies led to a chase that ended near the Minnesota State Fairgrounds Sunday morning.
No one was injured in the incidents though in one case authorities say a suspect pressed a gun to the back of a clerk's head.
