Victoria Police have charged two boys after an alleged carjacking in Sanctuary Lakes last night.
Police will allege the teenagers approached a stationary black Mercedes sedan on South Boulevard just before 11pm.
“They allegedly threatened the occupant, who was not injured, with a weapon before stealing the vehicle,” Police said in a statement.
“The pair were arrested a short time later in Truganina after they fled from the vehicle on foot.”
The boys, aged 15 and 16, have been charged with aggravated carjacking, theft of motor vehicle, common law assault and unlawful assault with a weapon.
The Hoppers Crossing boys were due to appear at a children’s court later today.
