Two people have been arrested and stolen property recovered after a commercial burglary in Whangārei overnight.

Senior Sergeant Christian Stainton, Whangārei area prevention manager, said police received a report of a burglary at a store on Western Hills Dr, Whau Valley, shortly before 1am.

"Police responded and located two people who were taken into custody without incident," he said.

"Stolen property worth approximately $6000 was also recovered."

A 16-year-old and a 17-year-old, who are due to appear in the Youth Court, are assisting police with enquiries into several other commercial burglaries, Stainton said.
