Two men on an early morning crime spree caused significant damage during three failed commercial burglaries, before being caught red-handed by police during the fourth.
Steven James Babic previously admitted to a string of charges, including numerous counts of aggravated burglary, related to that and other offending.
He was 40 years old when Acting Justice Anthony Hopkins handed him a backdated two-and-a-half-year jail term in July as the only one of the two men arrested.
