Detectives from the Maryborough Criminal Investigation Branch have apprehended three individuals in connection with a series of break-ins targeting businesses in Hervey Bay. The arrests follow extensive investigations into the incidents that occurred in late August and mid-September. A 16-year-old boy from Scarness faces multiple charges, including five counts of entering premises with intent to commit an indictable offense and unlawful use of a motor vehicle. He is set to appear in the Hervey Bay Children’s Court on September 17. Similarly, a 17-year-old from Kawangan has been charged with offenses such as entering a dwelling to commit a crime and receiving tainted property. He is also scheduled to appear in the Children’s Court alongside the 16-year-old. An 18-year-old man from Eli Waters has been charged with crimes including unlawful entry of a vehicle, assault, and possession of dangerous drugs. He has been denied bail and will appear in the Hervey Bay Magistrates Court on the same date. Authorities allege that the teenagers were involved in the theft of a Toyota Prado from Urangan and break-ins at businesses on Pier Street and Kent Street. The 18-year-old is accused of stealing a Toyota Hilux and attempting to steal a Mazda 3 in Urraween. Investigations are ongoing, and police encourage anyone with further information to contact Policelink or report anonymously via Crime Stoppers.
