Two teenage boys have been charged after allegedly trying to loot a boat washed up near disaster-hit Bundaberg.
A police chopper spotted the pair trying to get into the cabin of the boat at Bargara on Thursday night.
When officers arrived, the boys tried to flee but were caught a short distance away with marine equipment allegedly stolen from a different vessel targeted in an earlier raid.
The boys will be dealt with under the Youth Justice Act.
Meanwhile, a 61-year-old has also been charged with looting after allegedly stealing a refrigerator in flooded Bundaberg.
