An 11-year-old boy was arrested after allegedly attempting to steal paintball guns and accessories in Fair Lawn, New Jersey.

Fair Lawn police officers responded to a burglar alarm at New Breed Paintball, a store on Fair Lawn Avenue. When a police officer arrived at the business, he reportedly saw that a glass door in the rear of the shop had been shattered.

When the officer went inside the store, he reportedly found the juvenile suspect hiding behind a counter. According to police, the suspect was trying to place the stolen items into a bag.

Police said that the items which the boy tried to take have a value of more than $2,000.
