A recidivist offender tried to hide from police by standing behind elderly people on a train.
Ryan Paul Doyle, 30, pleaded guilty on February 26 in Rockhampton Magistrates Court to 22 charges including obstruct police, trespass, enter dwelling with intent to commit an indictable offence, possess drug utensils, received tainted property, dishonest use of bank cards and fail to appear in court.
The offences took place between September 16, 2020 and November 7, 2020 in Rockhampton, Petrie, Gladstone and New Auckland.
Police prosecutor Sergeant Shaun Janes said police came across Doyle at a railway station on November 2020 about 1.45pm and when asked to state his name, Doyle gave them four false names before giving his correct name.
