Four juveniles charged with theft are expected to appear in the Magistrate Court in Suva again this morning after being remanded yesterday.

It is alleged that two youths aged twelve and fourteen years old stole $20,000 from a parked vehicle at Wailada at 2.15pm on Friday.

The two entered the vehicle belonging to the 57 year old businessman which was parked unattended while he had gone inside his office.

The two youths found the cash wrapped in a plastic bag inside one of the compartments and was joined by a 15 and 17 year olds before they proceeded to spend the money in Suva.

Quick action by police led to their arrest in Suva one hour after the theft and $19,500 were recovered from them.
