Man uses tractor to steal two motorcycles and drive off down street

A 41-year-old man has been arrested by police after he attempted to steal two motorcycles from a shop in Queensland, Australia, before proceeding to drive off down the street with them.

Police cornered the man in a creek after the vehicle he had been using became lodged, and arrested him after a chase.

The man allegedly also stole the front-end loader he used to carry out the attempted robbery, which you can see was pretty effective at smashing the glass and hoisting up the bikes.
