Intruder arrested at West Lakes, South Australia

A Seaton man has been arrested after he was found on a West Lakes building site overnight.

Just before 1am, on Saturday 7 March, police patrols were called to a building site on West Lakes Boulevard, on the northern side of the old football park site, after a report of a man jumping a fence.

On patrols arrival, they spotted a man running south through the site over the oval.

Western District patrol officers however were too quick for the suspect, apprehending him on the half-forward flank on the old grandstand side.

The 50-year-old man from Seaton was arrested and charged with being unlawfully on premises and bailed to appear in the Port Adelaide Magistrates Court at a later date.

There were no injuries or hamstring strains in the incident.
