"They were both taken to Coonamble Police Station."
The younger man was charged with offences including aggravated theft from a dwelling, domestic violence intimidation, possessing a knife in a public place and possessing a prohibited drug.
The older man had outstanding warrants and was charged with property offences.
Both were refused bail to appear at Dubbo Local Court today.
