Santa can add two Evansville teens to his naughty list.
They were arrested for a string of burglaries on the east side last night.
The 16- and 17-year old suspects are now facing possible charges of burglary and mischief.
Police believe the two broke into two Chestnut Court homes last night.
At one home officers found a kicked-in door, partially opened gifts beneath the tree, and a ripped-open package.
By the end of the night, both suspects were arrested and confessed.
The older suspect even confessed to stealing from other homes in the neighborhood.
Evansville police say they found more stolen goods in the 17-year olds room--including electronics and jewelry.
Both teens are being held at the youth care center.
