Police have charged three teenagers in relation to a burglary in Fyshwick late Wednesday night (6 November 2019).

At about 11:15 pm last night police responded to a report that a door had been smashed at an Iron Knob Street business, and three offenders had stolen numerous items from the store.

An ACT Policing spokesperson said that a short time later, officers stopped three teenagers walking nearby.

“They were found to be in possession of several items believed to have been stolen in the break-in, and a subsequent search of the area found additional items,” the spokesperson said.

ACT Policing will allege that all three were involved in the burglary. The three teenagers will face the ACT Children’s Court on Monday (11 November).

Investigations are also continuing to determine whether the teenagers were involved in another attempted burglary in Fyshwick overnight.

Anyone with information that may assist police is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.
