A suspected motorcycle thief was caught red-handed by police - after he was spotted riding the bike he had allegedly stolen the previous day.
The Honda motorbike was reported stolen after a break-in at a garage in Rectory Lane, Sidcup, on Monday this week (October 30).
The following day, eagle-eyed police in Crayford spotted someone riding the stolen bike, and managed to grab the bike as the rider fled.
Police searched the area and found an 18-year-old who matched the description of the fleeing rider.
He was arrested for theft of a motor vehicle.
