Teenagers charged after stolen car dumped in Frankston

Police have charged three teenagers following an aggravated burglary in St Andrews Beach on Sunday morning.

It is alleged the residents of the home woke to hear their Genesis being driven out of their driveway on Bass Meadows Boulevard, on 16 February about 12.30am.

Responding police spotted the stolen blue Genesis G70 sedan, about 15 minutes later, driving in convoy with a white Kia Cerato along Boneo Road in Rosebud.

The cars were followed as they headed towards the Mornington Peninsula Freeway before the Air Wing was called in to assist.

Both vehicles headed into Baxter Park in Frankston South where the Genesis was abandoned.

The Kia was then picked up by the Air Wing allegedly travelling more than 200km/h on Moorooduc Highway on the incorrect side of the road.

It is believed two passengers got out of the car somewhere along Dalpura Circuit before the Kia was dumped in Plover Close and the remaining three occupants fled.

Uniform officers, local detectives and the Dog Squad were quick to give chase, arresting the trio nearby.

Two boys aged 14 and 15-years-old and a 17-year-old girl, all from the southern suburbs of Melbourne, have been interviewed.

They have all been charged with theft of a motor vehicle and bailed to appear before a children’s court at a later date.

Enquiries are ongoing in relation to the pair that got out of the vehicle.

It is alleged the Kia was stolen from the Waterways area on Thursday 13 February.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
