Four 15-year-old boys were taken into custody following a string of reported carjackings in the north-western part of Melbourne on the previous night.

Authorities were alerted around 11 pm about an incident where three teenagers, on Timbertop Parade in Aintree, reportedly insisted that a man surrender his car.

Although the trio of teenagers purportedly had “edged weapons,” the man stood his ground and did not yield the vehicle.

The car’s owner was allegedly assaulted, with the teens running from the scene.

The man was taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Police allege that the same group of teenagers approached another man, demanding his silver Toyota Camry on Hertford Road in Sunshine about 11.50pm.

This time they were allegedly successful, assaulting the man and taking off in his Camry,

Later, officers saw the Camry along with a Toyota Kluger, which was also allegedly stolen in another alleged carjacking in Sunshine last week.

Police were able to follow the Camry to Matheson Terrace in Hillside, where the alleged occupants dumped the car.

Police arrested three 15-year-old boys nearby and seized multiple edged weapons.

The stolen Kluger was found abandoned in Kellie Court in Albanvale.

A 15-year-old boy attempted to flee the scene but was arrested nearby.

All four teenagers will be interviewed by police.

No charges have yet been laid.
