Evansville Police arrested 5 juveniles after officers received reports of people getting into cars in the area of Helfrich Park School.
Officers were called the area around 4:45 Sunday morning and stopped 3 of the suspects. The other two suspects were located later in the day.
During the investigation, officers determined the group had been walking around several residential streets and getting into unlocked cars. This activity is referred to as “car hopping’.
