Northern Territory Police have arrested three youths after an unlawful entry, during the early hours of yesterday, at a nursing village in Alice Springs.

Police received information that staff at the location had barricaded the intruders in the administration office after allegedly stealing money and other items.

Police recovered the stolen money and further suspected stolen property from another location.

The three males, aged 14, 16 and 16, have been charged with multiple property offences and will appear in court at a later date.
