 Eastern Cape police have arrested 16 suspects, aged between 16 and 27 at a Youth Care Centre in Bhisho for allegedly being in possession of stolen goods.

Police spokesperson, lieutenant Siphokazi Mawisa says they were arrested on Wednesday night following a tip-off.

Police found goods allegedly stolen from the Youth Care Centre at a house, where a 27 year old man was arrested.

Dagga and mandrax worth R1 400 were also found in his possession.

Mawisa says further investigations led to the arrest of 11 boys, aged between 16 and 18 from the Centre on charges of housebreaking and theft.

She says other stolen goods were found at a second house where two women and two men were also arrested.
