Two Sunnyside teens were arrested after they were found with five car stereos, CDs and other burglary tools and car accessories, authorities said.
Sunnyside police nabbed the duo just after 11 p.m. Saturday, said Charlotte Hinderlider, police spokeswoman.
Officers responded to the 3400 block of Picard Place after the owner of a 1993 Honda Civic reported several items had been stolen from the car, Hinderlider said.
While officers were taking the vehicle prowl report, an alert neighbor provided license plate information on the suspect vehicle, she said.
A short time later, the 1999 Dodge Neon was found and stopped in the 200 block of Warehouse Avenue.
Ricardo E. Isquierdo, 18, and a 17-year-old Sunnyside girl, were taken to the Sunnyside city jail.
More than three hours later, officers were called to the 1400 block of Yakima Valley Highway after a resident reported her car had been broken into. The victim identified several items found in the suspects' car, Hinderlider said.
Both suspects facing charges of making or having burglary tools and two counts each of third-degree theft, second-degree vehicle prowling and third-degree possession of stolen property.

2 Kennewick men sentenced for car break-ins
Two Kennewick men were each sentenced to 40 days in jail for breaking into a number of parked cars last summer and stealing items like electronics, ID badges and a carseat.
David Delgado, 35, and Jimmy Thomas Riojas Cuellar, 24, are allowed to do the time in the Benton County jail on either work crew or work release if eligible, a judge said.
The men got the same sentence in two separate Benton County Superior Court cases but can serve it all at once. However, in one case, they were given 324 days suspended, meaning they could be ordered to do more time if they violate any conditions of the sentence.
