Police have connected two Peachtree City teens to the theft of two golf carts in the city.

One of the carts was stolen from the Wilshire Estates subdivision and the other from the Morallion Hills subdivision, police said. Both were later found abandoned, which is a typical occurrence in the summer as the carts are stolen for “joyrides.”

One of the carts was left damaged in the sandtrap of a nearby golf course.

The juveniles, 14 and 15 years old, were charged with theft by taking, while one was additionally charged with criminal damage to property and the other charged with criminal trespassing.

One of the suspects is a sibling of a juvenile charged in the destructive burglaries at the Wilshire Pavilion shopping center, so the Department of Family and Children Services has been asked to investigate the childrens’ welfare, police said.
