Waiting thieves

TWO teenage boys have been arrested in relation to a spate of night time burglaries at Fountain Gate Shopping Centre on Sunday.
Police believe the two boys, one from Hallam and the other from Narre Warren, hid in the shopping centre until closing time before going on their spree. The boys were apprehended about 11pm when two security guards spotted them leaving the shopping centre through a side exit.
Police said a substantial amount of money had been taken and the boys have now been questioned in relation to thefts at seven stores.
