Thanks Marc, I can't take all the credit.. Scooter owners have been watching for him, (based on my description), and it was them that got the pic. Discussed laying a charge with them; the feeling was we could possibly nail him for trespass, but to prove intent of the theft may be another thing.
If I catch him in there again, he will not get away.
