Two arrested in armed robbery of warehouse

    Police arrested two men last night after they robbed an employee at the Murphy Bonded Warehouse in the 6300 block of Union last night.

    Harold Tuiel Jr., 23, of Greenwood and Henry Wesley, 28, of Shreveport were arrested after they allegedly entered the business with handguns, took money and left the store on foot. Both were wearing ski masks.

    After broadcasting the suspects' descriptions, patrol officers spotted the two men in a blue Olds 98 in the parking lot of Woodlawn Terrace Apartments.

    Officers chased Tuiel and arrested him. Meanwhile, Police K-9 Bosco and his handler, Cpl. Stephen Pfender, tracked the second suspect to a vacant apartment building. Wesley was arrested after being bitten several times by Bosco.

    A ski mask and two handguns were found, and police impounded the car.
