The pair tried to break into a house on Warren Road at around 1:20am but were stopped before they could get inside. Police also charged them for letting themselves be driven in a stolen car, which was reportedly driven dangerously during the chase.
Cooke faces an extra charge for possession of an item intended for use in theft—a screwdriver.
