TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - A Tucson convenience store owner demanded justice after a group of teens stole dozens of cans and cartons of beer from her south-side gas station. Now, she is seeing that justice one arrest at a time.

The day after the story aired, Tucson Police Department reported it made three arrests in the case after receiving numerous tips from the public. Officers expect to make more arrests soon. The culprits could face shoplifting charges.
