Police say two juveniles were taken into custody after a dirt bike was driven through Coastal Grand Mall and crashed into a kiosk.

Two juveniles were arrested Wednesday morning after allegedly riding a dirt bike inside Coastal Grand Mall in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, according to the Myrtle Beach Police Department.

Officers responded to the shopping center at approximately 10:54 a.m. following reports that a dirt bike was being operated inside the mall.

When officers arrived, they learned the dirt bike had collided with a kiosk while traveling through the building.

Police said the two juveniles riding the dirt bike attempted to flee after the crash but were quickly apprehended by responding officers.

Authorities did not release details on how the dirt bike entered the mall or how long it was being operated inside the shopping center before the collision occurred.
