Last week, three teens were arrested for stealing the Coin Shop on Milwaukee Street in Janesville. The boys used the coins that they stole at the Casey's General Store on Center Avenue. The clerk at the store was suspicious as the coins were shiny and disclosed the same to an officer from the Janesville Police Department who had come down for a business check at 2am. Further investigations revealed that the teens had crashed into the Coin Shop two hours before they visited the convenience store. A forced entry to a window at the business confirmed these reports.

The stolen collector coins were recovered and the teenagers were arrested with charges of burglary and party to the crime theft, criminal damage of property, curfew violation and obstructing an officer against them.
