AUSTRALIAN POLICE ARE THE BEST POLICEThis is an actual Facebook post from the boys in blue.ARMADALE – ‘Operation Sweep’Targeted patrols of the Armadale area were happening to try and locate an offender as part of “Operation SWEEP’ earlier this week. The offender was known to be out and about breaking into houses and Armadale LPT located him near a stolen car in the area they were targeting.The offender jumped into the driver’s seat of the stolen car as Police approached and seemed fairly keen not to spend time in their company – which became a bit obvious when he stuck it in “R for race” but went backwards, into the front of Mr Plod’s Metal Chariot.It seems this was as a result of his extensive driver training at the Royal Show Bumper Cars facility as he then put it into “D for Dipstick” and drove forward straight into a parked and very obvious truck. Unlike when you do it in a bumper car he did not bounce off and start to go round again but came to a sudden and final stop.Bounced out of the car and tried to run but never stood a chance – the Little Inspector Gadget driving the Police Car had the incentive of knowing this if he caught and arrested the driver of the offending car he was going to end up with a lot less paperwork than if he let him get away – bad guy did not stand a chance and was very quickly wrapped up and handcuffed.The stolen car that he had damaged was a bit of an Aladdin’s Cave with property from overnight offences. Some of it was from burglaries that had not been reported yet.Unfortunately for the owner of the stolen car and the truck it wasn’t soon enough or effective enough to stop their vehicles being damaged but at least he was only able to drive the shortest of distance.Armadale Detectives got involved and conducted inquiries over the larger part of Tuesday and ended up charging the Dodgem Driver and one of his associates with a number of offences – the driver stayed in custody overnight pending court and the associate will be appearing in Armadale Court in the next little while -- source link
