A boy has been arrested following a helicopter search last night when three balaclava-clad men were spotted trying car handles in Surbiton.
Police were called at about 1.23am to Maple Road.
A police spokeswoman said: “Three men were seen trying car door handles. They were wearing balaclavas.
“As soon as police arrived they made off and a chase was given. The police called the helicopter crew and the dogs.”
A ‘juvenile’ was arrested on suspicion of motor vehicle interference and theft of a pedal cycle.
