A 34-year-old woman and 61-year-old woman were left shaken after two people broke into their Saville Avenue home about 5am.

Inspector David Cottee said the residents were woken by the intruders, who fled on foot.

“One of the occupants was disturbed and witnessed a person running from the house,” he said.

“Property was stolen including two mobile phones, a purse, cash and papers.

“They weren’t injured, they weren’t threatened.

“But they were obviously shocked by the brashness of the intruders.”

The alleged offenders, both aged 18, were arrested about 8.15am at a house on Glenelg Drive before being charged and bailed to Albury Local Court.

Inspector Cottee said good investigative work had led to the arrests.

“I’d commend the police who attended and conducted the investigation,” he said.

“They did a sterling job in tracking them down and getting a search warrant.

“They were arrested without incident.”
