COLORADO SPRINGS — Two boys were arrested Tuesday for stealing several vehicles, according to the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD).
In mid-September, detectives with CSPD began investigating several vehicle thefts. During the investigation, a 15-year-old and a 12-year-old were identified as suspects and were often together during these crimes.
Due to their age, the names of the boys will not be released.
In November, police say they obtained arrest warrants for the boys. The 15-year-old was charged with one count of motor vehicle theft, and the boy was charged with two counts.
On Tuesday, CSPD says the boys were taken into custody. Police say the 15-year-old was booked into the Zeb Pike Juvenile Detention facility, and the 12-year-old was released to a family member.
