In October when the boy was released from detention, police claim he immediately breached his bail. Police allege two days later he was caught again in another stolen car.

Police objected to his bail, but it was granted by a magistrate.

Less than 24 hours later, he allegedly stole another vehicle from a retirement home, crashing it early the next morning.

The teenager has been charged with more than 100 offences since June, including enter dwelling and commit, unlawful use of a motor vehicle and breach of bail.
