Marion Police say two teenagers robbed Christian Clothing Store after watching the Discovery Channel television show I Almost Got Away With It. One reportedly also told police the pair robbed a clerk at knifepoint because they were bored. Edwin Guerrero and Joe Jeremia Umana, both 18, were released from jail in October after being convicted of common law robbery and sentenced to 30 months of supervised probation. They had been behind bars since the April 24 incident. Guerrero and Umana walked into the Marion thrift store wearing bandanas over their faces and demanded cash from clerk Jennifer Jolly. When she wouldn't open the register, one began poking her with the tip of a butcher knife. She handed over $100 from the register. The boys were caught by authorities approximately one hour later. Victim Jennifer Jolly says the boys apologized to her in court. _______________ Follow WLOS on social media: WLOS ABC 13 News on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/News13/ WLOS ABC 13 News on Twitter: https://twitter.com/WLOS_13 WLOS ABC 13 News on Instagram: https://instagram.com/wlos_13 Subscribe to WLOS on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ABC13Channel/?sub_confirmation=1 Listen to AnchorMOMS, the Podcast: https://wlos.com/news/anchormoms/anchormoms-the-podcast Watch more top local news stories: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kk8Ge6UXHJs&list=PLkVbaoT-aYbIvnEpR0Ct5QQQqYaORUSUH For all of the day’s top local and national news, visit http://www.wlos.com Watch our live newscasts and other live video at https://wlos.com/watch Have a news tip?
