Fox River Grove police made a pair of arrests this week they believe solves a strong-arm robbery over the weekend outside a grocery store.

The robbery occurred about 9:39 p.m. behind the Dominick's store on Northwest Highway when, according to the victim, the two suspects approached her near her vehicle, shoved her and stole her cash, police said.
The victim, a Crystal Lake resident, later identified Devers and Hauck as her robbers through a photo lineup, police said.
