A 24-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman were taken into custody.

A search of the property was conducted and police allegedly located a number of stolen items including tools, jewellery, clothing, registration plates and a stolen Volkswagen Touareg.

The woman has been charged with burglary and will face Ballarat Magistrates’ Court on 14 October.

The 24-year-old man was last week being interviewed by police.
