Teens charged with stealing runaway girl’s car

Two 16-year-old boys have been charged with stealing the car used by a 16-year-old Alexandria girl who died last year after running away from home.

The body of Annie McCann was found in Baltimore in November 2008, just days after she ran away from home. Police have suggested McCann committed suicide and no arrests have been made in the case other than that of the two boys accused of stealing her car.
