Overview

  • The Stevens family in New Farm, Brisbane, has documented at least five instances of a jogger trespassing into their backyard pool since January.
  • CCTV footage shows the man checking windows to ensure no one is home before removing his shoes and swimming in the pool.
  • Incidents have occurred on weekends or public holidays, including Anzac Day, suggesting the trespasser times visits when the family is likely away.
  • The family has upgraded security and shared footage on a local Facebook group to identify the man, but police action remains limited without catching him in the act.
  • Under Queensland law, trespassing carries a penalty of up to one year imprisonment, and police are actively investigating the case.
