Citizen’s arrest A KARATE expert made a citizen’s arrest when he heard a man in his Ballarto Rd, Carrum Downs house, 9pm, Saturday 20 February. Police had been looking for the man over a series of night-time burglaries in the area. Detective Senior Constable Flyn Loughlin, of Frankston CIU, said the 33 year old was also wanted for the burglary of a business in Jack St, Tuesday 2 February, where he allegedly stole a safe, laptop, iPhone and two bottles of whisky. Another residential burglary occurred at McCormick’s Rd, Friday 19 February, where the man and an unknown accomplice allegedly stole a TV set and an X-box while the occupants were asleep, and at the house in Ballarto Rd. Here, the man was held by the karate expert until police arrived. “Police had been looking for him for other burglaries at the time and were not far away,� Detective Flyn said. The man was remanded to Frankston Magistrates’ Court at a date to be fixed.
Yackity success FRANKSTON detectives made seven arrests under Operation Yackity during the week 1321 February, for theft of, and from, cars. They work under the code name TOMCAT, which stands for Theft of motor cars and trailers. Twelve offences were allegedly committed. Detective Acting Sergeant Ryan Collins, of Frankston CIU, said a man was also arrested for cultivating cannabis, another for burglary, another for drink-driving and a juvenile for robbery – all in the Frankston, Seaford, and Carrum Downs areas. All were bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court except the drink-driver, who will be charged on Summons.
The cannabis was allegedly being grown in a hydroponic set up at the rear of a house in Lorna St, Seaford, by a 48 year old man. The robbery attempt occurred in Frankston CBD with the juvenile offender bailed to appear at Frankston Children’s Court at a later date.

Raiders steal guns, motorcycle HOUSE breakers stole 12 firearms among $45,000 worth of valuables from a house at Skye, noon, Thursday 11 February. Also stolen was a KTM off-road motorbike valued at $7000, which they could not start. A witness saw the bike being towed away by a white sedan with one of the men steering it. Detective Senior Constable Flyn Loughlin, of Frankston CIU, said the registered weapons – shotguns, rifles and air rifles – were correctly stored in a gun safe which the thieves cut open using an angle grinder. Also stolen from the Highview Rd property were a chainsaw, jewellery, iPads, ammunition, laptop, and hard drive from the CCTV security camera. This is the second robbery at the property in five weeks; detectives believe the same men may be responsible. They forced open the front door and worked their way to the back door, stealing items as they went. Detective Loughlin is appealing for witnesses to the robbery. He said the owner had “done everything right: CCTV was installed, the shed where the guns were stored was locked and the gun safe was locked,� he said. “It was just unfortunate that the thieves were able to get them.�
