Michael Tremarco, 35, was arrested in Stratford for stealing 23 pairs of valuable shoes worth nearly 23,000 from a lorry. The theft, which occurred overnight, was reported by a vigilant security guard who noticed suspicious behavior. Police quickly tracked Tremarco down in London, where he was apprehended after attempting to evade arrest. He was charged with theft, driving without insurance, and driving unlawfully. Following a guilty plea at Maidstone Crown Court, Tremarco received a sentence of one year and nine months. The incident highlighted the need for vigilance against organized crime.
PC Natalie Newfield emphasized the organized nature of Tremarco's crime, stating, "This was clearly an organised crime that was executed swiftly during the hours of darkness."
The police were alerted after a security guard saw a suspicious individual loitering near a lorry, leading to the pursuit and eventual arrest of the offender.
