Teens Accused of Breaking Into More Than 45 Cars

Four arrested, including two 17-year-olds

Two 17-year-olds from Silver Spring are among four people facing charges in connection with a rash of recent car break-ins in Chevy Chase.

The group is accused of stealing from 45 cars this month alone.

Most of the thefts happened in overnight hours, south of River Road between Goldsboro Road and Little Falls Parkway.

Police say many of the cars were unlocked. Two cars were stolen when owners the left keys inside. Police arrested the group after undercover officers spotted suspicious activity in a neighborhood.

In addition to two minors, police arrested a 20-year-old woman from Bladensburg and a 19-year-old man from Hyattsville.
