Impaired Juveniles Charged In Rash Of Car Break-Ins

Wilson’s Mills Police have solved a rash of car break-ins with the arrest of three juveniles. The 14- and 15-year-old suspects reportedly told police they were so highly intoxicated on marijuana at the time they broke into seven cars on March 15, they vaguely remember the incidents. Police Chief Steve Little said the burglaries occurred on Powhatan and Harrison Roads, within a three block radius of where the suspects lived. “Basically they were breaking into their neighbors’ cars,” Chief Little told WMPM. The juveniles face a combined total of nearly 30 felony offenses. Police have recovered some of the stolen property. The Johnston County Sheriff’s Office also assisted in the investigation.
