MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- Authorities continue to search for those responsible for robbing two teens at gunpoint.
On Tuesday, Miami Police arrested 18-year old Jonathan Valenzuela on two counts of armed robbery and one count of resisting arrest.
Officers said Valenzuela is one of three teens who robbed two teens at gunpoint that same day in an alley way near Flagler and 21st Avenue.
"One of the three robbers held the two at gun point while the other two ransacked and were able to get away with a back pack cellphone and money from those two young men," said Miami police spokesperson Kenia Fallat.
The robbery prompted two schools in the area to go on lock down - Citrus Grove Elementary and Citrus Grove Middle.
The other two suspects remain at large and are between 16 to 18 years old, police say.
