Man Arrested Over Stolen Property And Arrest Warrants At Hamilton South

BY IAN CROUCH

Police investigating reports of stolen property across Newcastle have arrested a man overnight at Hamilton South.

Officers noticed the 36-year-old pushing a specialised mountain bike along Fowler Street just before 6.00pm on Monday which they suspected had been stolen.

The man was also allegedly in possession of a stolen iPhone and two fuel cards which had been reported stolen from a car in Burwood Street Merewether on Sunday.

Checks revealed the man was also wanted on two arrest warrants for failing to appear in court.

He's been been refused bail to face Newcastle Local Court today.
