Man Charged With Number Of Shoplifting And Burglary Offences

Police have put a prolific shoplifter before the courts in Hamilton, after arresting and charging him with a number of shoplifting and burglary offences.

The 42-year-old male faces 10 charges of shoplifting and six charges of burglary from incidents over the last six months.

The stolen property from these incidents is believed to be worth over $10,000.

The man is due to appear in the Hamilton District Court today (Friday 9 May).

Police acknowledge the strain this type of offending has on local businesses, and the help of footage that stores provided assisted us in making this arrest.

Police do not tolerate this behaviour, and we continue to encourage retailers to support suspicious or illegal activity.
