A man has been banned from all Bunnings stores in NSW after allegedly trying to steal a drill from a Newcastle outlet over the weekend.
According to Newcastle Police, the man was spotted putting a drill in his pants by staff on Saturday. The man then tried to flee before the staff conducted a citizen’s arrest.
After resisting staff, the 37-year-old was arrested by police in a garden bed.
He was granted bail and will appear before Newcastle Local Court in October.
The drill, on the other hand, was found and returned to the store.
