Two youths and an adult have been arrested after police accused them of burglarizing a Darfield dairy, stealing a load of lollies.
The burglary took place early today, police said, but they then received word of a minor crash on the outskirts of Darfield, inland from Christchurch, just before 5am.
Police arrived at the scene and found a load of confectionery inside the vehicle, they said.
The occupants of the vehicle were then arrested and charged with burglary.
Two youths will appear at Youth Court today, while a 23-year-old man is expected to appear at Christchurch District Court.
