Joyriding
1:04 p.m. — 500 Block of Nova Road. Unarmed burglary and grand theft. The defendants, both juveniles, were arrested after they stole two golf carts from a funeral home’s utility building, according to the police report.
The defendants told police that two other juveniles showed them how to get inside the building, then left. Later, according to reports, the defendants stole the first golf cart, which they say ran out of battery power after about 10 minutes.
That's when they went back and stole the second, and drove it for “a couple of hours,” damaging the roof and removing the roof, after striking a tree branch. The defendants then threw the roof into a ravine.
