Young Suspects On Bikes Sought In B&E, Beating In Westland

WESTLAND (WWJ) - Police need tips from the public to identify two young suspects wanted in a breaking and entering and assault in Westland.

According to police, the pair was caught in the act after breaking into a "barn-type structure" in the area of Farmington and Venoy Rd. at around 6 p.m. on Monday, June 19.
