COVENTRY, Conn. (AP) Two teens have been charged with breaking into a Connecticut convenience store after police found them in a dumpster behind a Dunkin' Donuts.

An 18-year-old woman and a 15-year-old boy were charged with criminal attempt to commit burglary and criminal mischief Wednesday morning.
