(WWJ) Three young men are behind bars after they appeared in court to face charges in an armed robbery in Sterling Heights.
Police said the trio held a teenage victim at gunpoint outside the Walmart store and Van Dyke Ave. and 14 Mile Rd. on Monday.

No injuries were reported.
The suspects then fled into Warren, police said, where officers spotted the suspect vehicle and gave chase on Ryan Rd.
The pursuit ended when the suspects crashed fence along I-696 at 11 Mile and Dequindre roads.
