Marsden teens charged after series of incidents, Surfers Paradise

Two Marsden teenagers were among four to be arrested by police at Surfers Paradise last night, 1 April.

Police allege a Marsden boy, 17, and a Marsden girl, 15, were in a white 2022 Mazda 3 hatchback that had been stolen from a unit complex carpark on Station Road, Woodridge, between 3am and 10am on 28 March.

Officers spotted the Mazda travelling along Hamilton Avenue just before 8pm.

Police air support tracked the car while officers on the ground used a tyre deflation device to stop the car northbound on Ferny Avenue around 8.50pm.

The car was then abandoned, and the four teenagers fled on foot.

Police arrested them nearby a short time later.

The Marsden boy has been charged with three counts of fraud, and one count each of dangerous driving, trespassing and evasion.

He was expected to appear in the Southport Children’s Court on 2 April.

The Marsden girl has been charged with three counts of fraud, two counts of unlawful use of a motor vehicle and one count of attempted trespassing.

A 17-year-old girl from Ripley has been charged with two counts of unlicensed driving and one count each of dangerous driving, attempted trespassing, evasion and fraud.

A 16-year-old boy from Nerang has been charged with one count of dangerous driving.

The three teenagers are scheduled to appear in the Southport Children’s Court on 8 April.
