ACT Policing has charged an 18-year-old man with multiple theft charges, including that of several high performance cars, after a search warrant was executed on a Kingston residence yesterday.
The cars, a Porsche Boxster, a Porsche Cayenne and a Subaru Impreza WRX, were all driven away after the ignition keys were stolen during a burglary on a residential address in Kingston last week.
The Cayenne was later recovered on Dairy Flat Road in Fyshwick, the WRX in Kingston, and the Boxster in a church carpark in Narrabundah.
Acting on information received and forensic material obtained, around 11.45am yesterday (Monday, July 9) police executed the search warrant and seized a number of items. The alleged offender, who was present at the time of the warrant, was subsequently arrested and conveyed to the ACT Watch House.
He will face the ACT Magistrates court today charged with a series of offences including taking a motor vehicle without consent, possession of a prohibited substance, theft and aggravated burglary.
