Northern Territory Police have arrested two youths in relation to a stolen motor vehicle.

Around 4:50am this morning, members observed a reported stolen vehicle driving dangerously in the Alice Springs CBD.

Just after 5:00am, a tyre deflation device (TDD) was deployed, successfully spiking all tyres. The vehicle was later abandoned by the alleged offenders as they fled on foot. Two youths, aged 15 and 14 were later arrested and remain in police custody.

Use of the TDD has again proved successful in assisting police with the recovery of a stolen vehicle and apprehension of alleged offenders.

Enquiries are continuing.
