Local burglaries end with teen surrender at Stop N Go

A 16 year old Las Vegas resident, unnamed due to age, surrendered after authorities surrounded Stop N Go at 1401 W Lake Mead Blvd following a silent alarm. He used a sledge hammer to break bricks, yielding five six packs of soda and tools near the entry. A previous bench warrant tied to strong arm robbery is on record. In a separate burglary, Gregory Smith 19, Michael Roy McCabe 18, and a 17 year old were arrested after burglars moved stereo equipment and a TV from 6006 Kim Ave to a pickup. Smith and the juvenile were caught in the truck. McCabe was later apprehended at his home. A detective traced the trio in unmarked crime surveillance late at night, leading to a police response at the Kim Avenue residence.
