Two boys were arrested this week on suspicion of breaking into a large number of vehicles in the Meridian Ranch and Woodmen Hills areas, the El Paso County Sheriff’s Office said Friday.

The boys’ names were not released because they’re minors. The boys were in a suspected stolen car when they were arrested early Wednesday at Meridian Road and Stapleton Road.

The boys are accused of breaking into cars Monday night into Tuesday and stealing garage door openers, vehicle registrations and weapons. They admitted to stealing the car, which had the keys in it, the Sheriff’s Office said. They are from the area that was burglarized and they were booked into Spring Creek Youth Services Center.

A silver Honda Odyssey was stolen and has not been found, the Sheriff’s Office said.
