   Two would-be motorcycle thieves were interrupted by police, who were called after a resident of the Avalon Run apartment complex reported suspicious activity in a carport at 4:18 a.m. Jan. 24, according to police Lt. Mark Ubry.
   Justin K. Kerper, 28, and Eric J. Dahl, 24, of Bristol Township, Pennsylvania, were charged with attempted motor vehicle theft, possession of burglary tools and obstruction of the administration of law, Lt. Ubry said.
   The two men had moved a car that was in the way of a 2006 Suzuki GSX motorcycle that was parked in the carport on Town Court North when police officers arrived, Lt. Ubry said. The two men fled when they saw the police officers, but they were apprehended after a foot chase.
