Teens Apprehended After Breaking Into Lawrenceburg Home

   Three local teens were taken into custody late last week after police officers found they were in possession of drug-related items inside a house they had burglarized.

   Lawrenceburg Police officers answered burglary in progress call at 240 Admiral Circle at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. They arrived to find the front door locked, and three male juveniles inside the home. Officers at the rear door reported they could hear the youths conversing, then saw one run toward the front of the home.

   The trio was ordered to exit the home and promptly complied. Inside, officers report finding marijuana stems and roaches, a film container that bore marijuana residue, a bong, and various bottle lids that had been modified to smoke marijuana.

   The teens, ages 16, 17 and 16, were transported to the Lawrenceburg Police Department where they were charged with one count of aggravated burglary, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia apiece. They were subsequently released into the custody of their parents.

   The teens will answer the charges against them through Lawrence County Juvenile Court.
