Eastern Region Crime Squad detectives have charged a teenager following a home invasion in Camberwell last month.
The 16-year-old boy from the Casey area was charged with 18 offences including aggravated home invasion, burglary, criminal damage, theft of motor vehicle, assault with a weapon, aggravated burglary, attempted aggravated burglary, trespass, theft from motor vehicle and attempted theft from motor vehicle.
Police will allege that three youths attended multiple addresses in Kirkwood Drive and surrounding streets before committing the home invasion on 29 October just before 3am.
He will appear before a children's court at a later date.
The investigation remains ongoing, and police are continuing to seek information on the two other offenders involved.
