Police have arrested a man with an allegedly stolen motorcycle in Dandenong last night.

Police were patrolling when they observed a stolen motorcycle parked on Dandenong Street about 11.10pm.

As police approached, the motorcyclist tried to flee from the scene before being arrested.

A 28-year-old man from Hampton Park was taken to Dandenong Police Station to be interviewed.

He has been charged with a number of theft offences.

He has been remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court at a later date.

This arrest is part of Operation Tidal which utilises a highly visible police presence across the Casey, Greater Dandenong and Cardinia Police Service Areas (PSAs).

Tidal is an ongoing operation and police will continue to focus resources where they’re most needed.
