Siege Reid St Frankston.
Police outside the house after the offender had been caught.
Police pulled a car over in Lardener St Frankston and the occupant did a runner, more police were called in and the suspect was tracked down in Ried St Frankston. It appears he broke into one house then made his way out the back going through another property, then through to a third house. He changed clothes at one of the houses but police had the third house cordened off. Officers from the Pushbike Squad were there along with dog squad and a contingent of other police officers. Foot St and Ried St were closed to the public. Police had capsicum spray at the ready. The dog squad went followed by other police and the siege ended when the suspect was bought out and put in the back of a police Divisional Van. Police said that the offender had weapons (knives) and that the car that was towed away from Lardener St had knives and drugs in it.
NB: Apart from one TV videographer I was the only stills photographer there so we have an exclusive to this.
