A brazen burglar will won’t be sipping on the rewards any time soon after being remanded in custody.
Police arrested the man following a Flat Bush burglary in which two cars and a much-loved whiskey collection were allegedly stolen.
All up, the items at the Accent Road property had a total value of more than $140,000.
Counties Manukau East Area Prevention Manager, Inspector Rakana Cook, says following an extensive investigation, Police executed a search warrant at a Papatoetoe property earlier this month.
“A man was arrested and a number of items were recovered, including three road bikes which had allegedly been stolen in a separate incident.
“We understand the effect burglaries and prolific offending can have on our community and we hope this arrest provides some reassurance to the community that we will continue to hold these offenders to account.”
Inspector Cook says enquiries remain ongoing to locate the stolen vehicles.
