MIDLOTHIAN, Ill. (CBS) -- Two juveniles were arrested early Wednesday in south suburban Midlothian, following a five-hour standoff with police after they broke into a cell phone store.

2 Arrested After Standoff
When they arrived, officers noticed someone climbing through a broken window, then saw two young suspects inside the store.
One of the suspects apparently had a gun, so police surrounded the store.
After trying to contact the pair for several hours without success, police finally went in around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday, and arrested two juveniles.
A gun was confiscated from one of the young men. There were no reports of any injuries.
It was not immediately clear if the suspects had yet been charged.
