TWO teenage boys who were arrested following an aggravated burglary on an estate in Colchester have been released on bail.
Officers made the arrests after being called to a property in Charles Pell Road, Greenstead, on Sunday evening.
It was reported two people who were armed with knives had forced their way into the property.
A bag of cannabis was also seized and a 17-year-old boy, of Barking, London, and a 15-year-old boy, of Borehamwood, Hertfordshire, were arrested on suspicion of possession of a Class B drug with intent to supply.
A spokesman for Essex Police confirmed: “Both people arrested have been released on bail while inquiries continue.”
