Three teens are facing multiple charges after an incident at the Quinpool Road McDonald’s early this morning.

Police say officers were called to the restaurant around 4am after someone overheard the teens saying they had a gun.

Officers recovered a plastic gun, along with several stolen items which ended up being connected to a vehicle that was broken into on Bloomingdale Terrace.

Two 17-year-olds and a 16-year-old are scheduled to appear in court later today.
