At about 1:45 a.m., the two male teenagers, ages 15 and 16, were approached by four unknown males near the Solo Liquor Store parking lot and told to leave, police said. The four males had come from a white 2005 to 2007 Ford or Dodge minivan with tinted windows that was parked near the liquor store.
