In a recent incident at Werribee Secondary College on Thursday, 25 January, police successfully apprehended two teens in connection with a burglary.
According to reports, the two boys managed to enter the Werribee Secondary College on Duncans Road around 10:40 pm. Swift police response led officers to the location where the suspects were discovered attempting to evade capture by ascending to the roof of a building.
Emergency services, including fire personnel equipped with ladders, were summoned to the scene to aid in the apprehension. After a period of negotiation, both 14-year-olds descended from the roof and were subsequently arrested.
During the investigation, items belonging to the school were recovered from the youths, including fire extinguishers, a set of keys, and school identifications.
The teens, residents of Werribee and Epping, are expected to receive a cautionary measure for their involvement in the burglary and theft.
