Escaped car thief told to turn himself in

POLICE arrested two teens and are looking for a third over the alleged theft of an Audi.
“Our main message to this young lad is hand yourself in because it will only be a matter of time before we find you,” Operation Cosmas Detective Acting Senior Sergeant Ivan Bobetic said.
Investigators arrested the boys just before noon on Friday 20 May following reports of an erratically-driven vehicle in Lynbrook.
They found the car dumped near Westernport Highway and caught a 17-year-old from Hampton Park and a 16-year-old from Dandenong North nearby.
They were taken into custody and police said they would oppose bail.
Investigators are calling for public help to identify the third boy who fled on foot and was described as Middle Eastern in appearance.
Police said the Audi was stolen during an aggravated burglary in Caulfield on 13 April and that it was used in several other incidents including robberies, armed robberies and traffic offences.
Cosmas involves police from across the southern metropolitan region and is aimed at combating a rise in burglaries and car-jackings.
