A 19-year-old Oxley man will face the ACT Magistrates Court this morning charged with driving offences and burglary after allegedly stealing two vehicles.

At about 6:35am on Wednesday 23 October, the 19-year-old was captured on a CCTV camera at a residence in Fisher attempting to enter the property through a glass sliding door.

The man used a watering can to smash the locked door and once inside, allegedly stole the owner’s bag containing keys to their blue Porsche Macan – which he subsequently stole.

The Porsche was recovered a short time later in Lyons, however no occupants were inside.

Yesterday, Thursday 7 November, a woman attended a warehouse in Fyshwick to collect a parcel. While inside, her white Audi S3 was stolen from the carpark.

About 3:35pm yesterday, police observed the Audi driving well in excess of the speed limit in Richardson.

A short time later, police activated their emergency lights and directed the Audi to stop, however the car – allegedly being driven by the 19-year-old – swerved around them and continued towards Tharwa Drive.

Police later located the Audi at a residence in Oxley where the 19-year-old man, who had bail conditions not to drive a car, was subsequently arrested.

He was charged with burglary, taking a motor vehicle without consent, two counts of driving a motor vehicle without consent, being an unlicenced driver, and dangerous driving.
