AN alleged thief has been caught by police after falling asleep in the driveway of a property he had just stolen from.
On 1 December, a 20-year-old man of no fixed address fell asleep inside a car parked at a Langwarrin South home. The alleged offender was found wearing ladies’ bike gloves stolen from the garage of the home.
Police arrested the man, who they believe may be linked to three other thefts from motor vehicles.
Police say they located a wheelbarrow which had been used to commit the alleged offences.
The man was charged and remanded to appear at the Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 3 December.
