The headline doesn't even mention this was a robbery. Don't you think that's more important than an article of clothing?

it was a theft by teens. not a robbery

Use of force makes this robbery by definition. Theft is done without coercion, usually without the victim's knowledge (pickpocketing for example).

And they were committing theft when confronted

At which point in time they turned it into a robbery. Words are not this hard.
