The males were said to be associated to a blue Audi vehicle seen driving through the area.

As deputies checked the area for the described males and vehicle, three 16-year-old, juvenile males were seen walking towards a blue Audi sedan parked on Lucania Street.

One of the males was holding a duffel bag. An attempt was made to contact the three juveniles, but two of them ran, jumping over fences towards Village Parkway. A perimeter was established and all three juveniles were detained without further incident.

It was later determined a total of five residences in the vicinity had been broken into, via door pry or open window.

A search of the duffel bag yielded the recovery of seven firearms determined to have been stolen from one of the victim residences. A search of the Audi yielded the recovery of all remaining property stolen from the five victim residences.

All three juveniles were transported to the Juvenile Justice Center and subsequently charged for crimes related to residential burglary, possession of stolen property and conspiracy.

Dublin Police Services would like to thank the citizens who provided information during this incident, which greatly assisted in the quick apprehension of the responsible suspects.
