Two Malden boys have been arrested in connection with allegedly stealing a patrol rifle, high-capacity magazine and ammunition from a Massachusetts State Police cruiser last week.

During the overnight hours of March 23, the two juveniles — ages 14 and 15 — allegedly went to an apartment complex’s parking garage located on Overlook Ridge Drive in Malden, according to the Middlesex District Attorney’s Office.

The two boys are accused of breaking into the marked cruiser in the parking garage, and the 14-year-old took the rifle, the DA’s Office said. That firearm and other stolen items were later found in a Malden home connected to the 15-year-old boy.

The 14-year-old boy has been charged with breaking and entering a vehicle in the nighttime to commit a felony, larceny of a firearm, possession of a firearm and conspiracy to commit a crime.

The 15-year-old boy has been charged with breaking and entering a vehicle in the nighttime to commit a felony, larceny of a firearm and conspiracy to commit a crime.

The juveniles will be arraigned on Tuesday in Cambridge Juvenile Court.

With the exception of youthful offenders, all juvenile cases are closed to public and no additional information can be released.
