TWO Frankston North teenagers were charged with aggravated burglary and theft of a car after incidents in the Frankston North and Pines areas last week.
Detective Sergeant Brett Daly, of Frankston CIU, said police will allege the pair – aged 18 and 16 – broke into houses to steal jewellery, wallets and car keys, Monday 10 October.
In one instance, a resident walked into his lounge room to find them standing there. The 16-year-old simply said, “Sorry mate,” as they ran from the house with the man’s car keys, stealing his Holden Commodore parked in the driveway.
The car was later recovered with minor damage.
Two teens were arrested in Beach St, Frankston, Tuesday 11 October. The younger teen was remanded in custody and the 18-year-old released on bail. They will appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court, Thursday 8 December.
