Police patrol Jail over monkey-bike death
Police catch vandal
A COUNTY Court judge last week sentenced Caleb Jakobsson to seven years in jail for riding his mini-bike into, and killing, a Carrum Downs woman in September 2015. Judge Campton found the now 20-year-old guilty of culpable driving causing death and failing to stop immediately after the accident outside Carrum Downs Shopping Centre. She imposed a non-parole period of four years and disqualified him from applying for a licence for four years. Jakobsson was speeding on his monkey bike when he fatally struck Andrea Lehane, 34, as she walked over a crossing. The then 18-yearold fled the scene, leaving the mother-of-two dying on the road with severe brain injuries. She died in hospital days later. Jakobsson later handed himself in to police.
A MAN who allegedly daubed graffiti on Frankston police station on Tuesday last week was chased and caught by police. Members of the public reported the man who was outside the station on Fletcher Rd at 3.50pm. The 22-year-old Mooroopna man was charged with criminal damage and possessing a drug of dependence. He was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrate’s Court on 26 July.

Teens punched, robbed NINE teenagers enjoying an impromptu basketball match at Ballam Park were terrorised by thugs, 9pm, Friday 26 May. The 16-17-year-olds were shooting hoops when six older men and a woman aged in their late teens-early 20s approached and grabbed a backpack. The 16-year-old owner ran up and tried to retrieve the bag before falling to the ground and being dragged along. During the struggle another offender moved in and, fearing he would be punched, the teenager let go of the backpack. At the same time, his mate ran in to defend him and was punched in the head. The backpack, which contained a wallet, phone and personal papers, was later found empty on Cranbourne Rd near Karingal Drive. The offenders were seen walking into Karingal Hub shopping centre. Police said the woman in the group was heard to call out “Ben, don’t” to the bag snatcher.
