Boy charged with Keysy home invasion

A 17-year-old Pakenham boy has been charged with an alleged aggravated home invasion in Keysborough on Saturday 29 July.

The offenders allegedly returned and confronted the victims demanding the man’s mobile phone while wielding an edged weapon.

The males drove away empty handed.

The Pakenham teen was arrested and charged with aggravated home invasion, attempted armed robbery, theft of motor vehicle and commit an indictable offence on bail.

He will appear before a children’s court at a later date.

Police are seeking public assistance to identify the other males involved as well as information about the following stolen vehicles –
