A teenager will face court for two unlawful entries which occurred in neighbouring houses in Dehavilland Street, Alice Springs, last month.

Members of the Property Crime Reduction Unit investigating the two unlawful entries arrested the 17-year-old male after executing a search warrant on his home and recovering some of the stolen property earlier this week.

Police allege the youth and a number of co-offenders unlawfully entered one of the houses on April 28 and stole a number of items including cash, jewellery and electronic equipment.

Then the next night they allegedly unlawfully entered a neighbouring house and stole further property including cash and electronic equipment.

The teenager has been bailed to appear in the Youth Justice Court on June 8.
