A MAN suspected of up to 70 burglaries on factories and commercial premises in the Frankston, Dandenong and Casey areas was arrested last week.
Detective Senior Constable Jason Hamilton-Smith, of Frankston CIU, will allege the man raided 30-40 premises in Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula from September up until his arrest, Wednesday 9 November.
The robberies included small cash amounts and miscellaneous items taken late at night and in the early mornings using stolen cars.
Detective Hamilton-Smith agreed the man was something of a “Lone Ranger” and said stolen property was found at his address.
A 24-year-old Cranbourne man has been remanded in custody to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court, 30 November. Another man living at the address was charged with handling stolen goods and drug offences.
