Three teenage boys have been charged with allegedly stealing mail numerous times in two neighborhoods in Abington, Montgomery County, according to township police.
Two 17-year-olds from Rydal and a 17-year-old from Abington have been charged for what local police believe to be at least several weeks of alleged tampering with mail delivered to homes in the Rydal and Meadowbrook neighborhoods.
The suspects were caught Wednesday after an officer noticed a car driving "in a suspicious manner in the area of Wrack Road" in Meadowbrook, Abington police said.
The arrests were made after a special detail deployed by Abington police saw the vehicle.
During the traffic stop, officers found the three suspects and two other teenagers. The three teens charged allegedly "admitted to committing the thefts not only yesterday but also earlier in the week and several other times throughout November and possibly even earlier."
The three will face charges in Montgomery County Juvenile Court. The investigation is ongoing, police said.
