Queensland police say that two boys aged 12 and 15 have been charged after a stolen vehicle was driven at speed through the Gold Coast on Saturday night before crashing into a police car at Tugun.
Police say that on Friday, a white Jeep Grand Cherokee was stolen during the burglary of a home on Catalina Court at Mermaid Waters.
The vehicle was then observed around 11.50pm on November 30 by POLAIR, travelling erratically along Bermuda Street in Burleigh Waters.
