Queensland police have laid further charges against a 20-year-old man following an investigation into the alleged dangerous operation of a vehicle in Caboolture on October 22.

Police allege a black Ford Falcon was travelling at high speed on the Bruce Highway at about 4:20 p.m., with occupants leaning out of the vehicle’s windows. The investigation was conducted as part of Operation Yankee Tread, an ongoing operation targeting dangerous driving across the Moreton District.

The Upper Caboolture man has been charged with dangerous operation of a motor vehicle, travelling in a vehicle with part of a body outside a window or door, committing a public nuisance and wearing a face covering during the commission of an indictable offence. He is due to appear in Caboolture Magistrates Court on November 23.

A 15-year-old Burpengary boy was initially charged with nine offences on October 25. A 17-year-old Burpengary East boy and a 15-year-old Morayfield girl were also dealt with under the Youth Justice Act.

Senior Sergeant Tom Jakes, officer in charge of the Moreton District Tactical Crime Squad, said police had recorded a significant reduction in hooning complaints since Operation Yankee Tread began in August.
