Two minors were caught trying to force open the door of a football nursery in San Ġwann yesterday morning.

A witness spotted the hooded boys struggling with the door and immediately informed the police at around 7am, the police said.

As soon as two cars from the Rapid Intervention Unit arrived in Triq Kampanella minutes later, they ran off. However, they were soon caught in Triq ir-Rand.

The police found signs of an attempted forced entry on the door and a screwdriver and two bicycles close by.
