Teens charged over stolen cars

TWO male teenagers have been arrested after they were caught driving a stolen motor vehicle in Dickson late last night.

Around 11pm police saw two cars, a white Mazda 121 and a red Mazda MX5, driving slowly behind the Canberra Tourism Information building.  Both cars had been reported stolen earlier in the day.

The officers approached the two cars and arrested the teenagers, aged 15 and 17.

Both were charged with Ride/Drive Motor Vehicle without Consent and Going Equipped for Theft.

They will both face the ACT Children’s Court this morning.
