SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle police say they have arrested four people after a string of robberies and stun-gun attacks on women.

The Seattle Times reports that two women in their 20s were arrested Wednesday. On Friday, detectives arrested a 17-year-old girl and a 22-year-old man.

Police say at least three women have been robbed since mid-May by attackers who used or tried to use a stun-gun to shock them. All three victims were loading or unloading items from their cars when they were attacked and their purses taken.
