Forty minutes after stealing a police patrol bike parked outside Chaderghat police station, the man was caught by the Rachakonda police.
Kanaka Madhu, a native of Suryapet spotted the bike with keys and made away with the vehicle late on Tuesday. However, the police who realised the theft traced the vehicle using GPRS tracking system attached to the vehicle and informed Rachakonda police as the thief travelling towards their direction.
The traffic police intercepted the accused who was coming from Uppal and handed over to the police. Madhu said that he was headed to Khammam.
