THREE teenagers have been charged in connection with two burglaries.

Eighteen-year-old man Lewis Loveridge and boys aged 17 and 15, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were arrested in the Long Lane area of Waverton at around 3.30pm on Tuesday, October 1.

The arrests followed a police pursuit after a silver Vauxhall Astra failed to stop for officers on Old Coach Road in Broxton.

The trio have subsequently been charged with two counts of burglary.

The charges relate to incidents in Sutton Weaver and Peckforton on Tuesday.

Loveridge, of Firbank, Elton, has also been charged with dangerous driving, driving whilst disqualified and driving without insurance.

He has been remanded in custody to appear at Chester Magistrates Court today (Thursday, October 3), as has the 17-year-old boy, of no fixed address, and the 15-year-old boy from Ellesmere Port.
