#ARREST | On Monday 2nd March at around 13:50 we received a report of two young males wearing balaclavas riding a moped and acting suspiciously around the carparks at Ventura Retail Park. They were also seen riding along footpaths towards the Town Centre.
Officers located and stopped the vehicle on Salters Lane. The two persons tried to run off but one of them was quickly detained. The other male made good their escape.
The vehicle was confirmed as being stolen from the Burton area.
The 14 year old male, from Birmingham, was arrested for theft of motor vehicle, going equipped, dangerous driving, driving without a licence and without insurance.
He has since been released on conditional bail.
Elsewhere, at 15:00 one of our PCSOs stopped an off-road motorcycle in Kettlebrook Nature Reserve near to Jowett. The vehicle was seized and the 21 year old male, from Tamworth, has been dealt with accordingly.
