Teenagers allegedly stole Adelaide turtles

Several turtles stolen from an Adelaide pet store have been recovered by police, who have accused four teenage boys of the theft.

A security camera captured the teens taking the five short-necked turtles from a Munno Para store on Tuesday. A tip off helped police find the reptiles at an Elizabeth Park home on Wednesday night.

Two 13-year-olds from Elizabeth Park have been charged with theft, while two other boys from the same suburb, aged 14 and 15, have been reported.
