Two teenage boys have been arrested after reports of youths peering inside cars in a hospital car park.
Officers arrested two boys, aged 17 and 16, on suspicion of going equipped for theft in the car park of Birmingham Heartlands Hospital.
Police also seized a device used to steal vehicles, an unbranded key, and a knife.
The boys remain in police custody.
The arrests were made as part of Operation Calibre, which has seen West Midlands Police tackle robberies in Birmingham as part of a national week of action.
As part of the operation, detectives have also charged a teenager in connection with 11 robberies in the city which have been carried out over the last few months.
The 17-year-old has been charged with 11 counts of robbery, a section 18 assault and three counts of possession of a bladed article.
He was remanded to appear before Birmingham Magistrates Court today.
