Perth's 'Porsche Kid' caught in bushland

One of Western Australia's most wanted men has been captured without incident after a tip-off from the public.

Bret Lindsay Capper, 42, who was dubbed the "Porsche Kid" in his teens for stealing luxury cars, was tracked down in the Perth suburb of Baldivis overnight with the help of police dog Rumble, who tracked his scent into bushland.

Capper has been charged with 18 offences including aggravated assault occasioning bodily harm, stealing a motor vehicle and armed robbery, and will appear in the Perth Magistrates Court later on Monday.
