Three teenagers have been arrested and charged after an alleged attempted carjacking in Kingston on Sunday night.
Police allege two 14-year-olds and a 15-year-old were involved in a series of incidents near Maranoa Road, including attempted carjacking, attempted motor vehicle theft, stealing and burglary.
No one was injured during the attempted carjacking.
Tasmania Police said investigations were continuing to find “several other youths” believed to have been involved.
“Kingston is a safe place to live, but unfortunately there are a small number of offenders who continue to do the wrong thing,” police said.
“Police are committed to reducing crime in our communities and we are pleased to have had a significant decrease in offences reported in the Kingston division last financial year.”
Authorities are urging anyone who witnesses illegal or anti-social behaviour to contact police on 131 444 or call 000 in an emergency.
