Two young teenagers are facing charges in connection with a New Year’s Day carjacking in Peterborough.
Police say the pair approached a vehicle in the area of Wolf Street and Park Place at around 8 p.m. on Wednesday (January 1), pulling a woman from the vehicle and punching her in the face before fleeing in the vehicle.
The vehicle was located the next day in the Stewart Street and Rink Street area.
On Friday, police officers located two teenagers and took them into custody.
As a result of the police investigation, a 13-year-old Peterborough boy and a 14-year-old Oshawa girl have each been charged with motor vehicle theft with violence and two counts of failing to comply with a sentence.
Both of the accused teenagers were held in custody and appeared in court on Saturday.
