OPP are calling it a crime spree in Muskoka.

Police say two vehicles were stolen, one from a business on Main Street in Huntsville on Tuesday night, and another from a business on Lake Joseph Road in Georgian Bay Township early Wednesday.

In between those calls, police also received a report of people attempting to enter a car on Maple Street in Port Carling, but the witness honked, and they fled.

Police later spotted the stolen vehicles in Port Carling, and the suspects ran off on foot.

Eventually, four youths were taken into custody.

Two 14-year-old boys were charged with 3 counts of mischief, 2 counts each of break and enter and vehicle theft, and 1 count of possession of stolen property obtained by crime.

Two girls, ages 14 and 15, were charged with possession of stolen property obtained by crime over $5,000.

The youths have court dates next month.
