Three people are facing multiple charges after they were arrested for a home invasion.

 

Early this morning before 4 a.m, Thompson RCMP was called to deal with a break and enter in progress on Silver Crescent.

 

As police attended the scene, two 18-year-old men and a 17-year-old male attempted to escape in a vehicle, but RCMP were able to intercept and arrest them.

 

The 17-year-old youth who drove the vehicle was impaired, and provided breath samples more than double the legal limit.

 

The charges the three males face include break and enter, possession of a weapon dangerous to public peace, mischief under $5, 000, possession of break-in instruments, in addition to possessing coke. The 17-year-old driver also faces impaired driving charges, as well as a charge of resisting arrest.

 

The three suspects are in police custody, and in-custody court appearances are pending.
