14-Year-Old Busted in Northfield For Car Theft and Car Burglaries

If you had your car broken into in Northfield this week, you weren't alone. Police now say they have their man, er, kid.

Northfield Police say they've arrested a 14-year-old from Pleasantville on charges of theft of a motor vehicle and burglary to a motor vehicle.

Police say they aren't sure how many cars the kid is responsible for breaking into - they're still trying to figure that out.

Just hours before announcing the arrest, police had said that multiple car burglaries had taken place on Juniper Avenue and Sutton Avenue.

Police say the car that was stolen from Northfield was later found by Atlantic City Police.

Because of the juvenile's age, his identity is not being revealed.

Police say that the investigation is continuing. If you have any information on the case, you're urged to contact Northfield Police's Detective Bureau at 609-641-2832 extension 190.
