Francis Graham, 26, from Hunter Street, WC1, has pleaded not guilty to a string of 11 offences. He now faces trial after being remanded in custody.
Crime Spree Covered London Boroughs
Graham was charged on Thursday, 24 September with a series of thefts and burglaries dating back to late 2019. His alleged crimes include:
- Theft from a motor vehicle in Hackney (29 October 2019)
- Commercial burglaries in Kingston, Shepherds Bush, Kensal Road, and Teddington (Nov 2019 – Jan 2020)
- Multiple thefts of pedal cycles across Richmond, SE15, SE17, and central London locations between December 2019 and September 2020
Facing the Music at Westminster Magistrates Court
Graham appeared in custody at Westminster Magistrates Court the same day he was charged. He firmly denied all allegations and was remanded until his trial date is set.
Detectives continue to piece together the investigation after what looks like a well-planned crime spree across London’s neighbourhoods.
