<p class="mol-para-with-font">A man has filmed a thief rummaging through his vehicle in a St Kilda car park.<br />
Melbourne man, John Denney, returned to his unlocked vehicle at an underground car park on Fitzroy Street at about 10.30am on Thursday and caught a man going through the glovebox and console. Mr Denney calmly started filming and questioning the man, and later uploaded the video to Facebook.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">&#8216;Just caught this fella red handed going through my car in Fitzroy street, St Kilda underneath the Safeway carpark. Hectic start to the morning, I think he was just after another hit!,&#8217; the video post reads.<br />
The video shows the thief head down rifling through Mr Denney&#8217;s centre console.<br />
Mr Denney decided to film the incident because he couldn&#8217;t believe what he was seeing.<br />
&#8216;I thought there is no way anyone else would believe it either so I decided to video it,&#8217; he told Daily Mail Australia on Friday.<br />
&#8216;Hop out of me car, mate,&#8217; says Mr Denney in the video.<br />
&#8216;Your car?,&#8217; the thief replies.<br />
&#8216;My car!,&#8217; Mr Denney says.<br />
&#8216;Bull****,&#8217; says the thief.</p>

&#8216;The crayons aren&#8217;t mine,&#8217; says Mr Denney, before giving the thief a final warning.<br />
&#8216;If I find out there&#8217;s stuff missing out of my car I&#8217;ll be coming to look for you.&#8217;<br />
Mr Denney was able to recover all his belongings, and will not be reporting the incident to police. &#8216;I have actually been contacted by the police but at this stage I do not want to take any further action.&#8217;<br />
&#8216;Perhaps he just needed that second. It appeared he was going through a rough patch,&#8217; Mr Denney said. The video has attracted a number of comments with many praising Mr Denney&#8217;s composure.<br />
&#8216;Oh my god Josh, you stayed so calm!! Well done!,&#8217; one user wrote.<br />
&#8216;I realised this fella was not having the best day, I thought a calm approach would be the best alternative as I had no intentions of chasing him,&#8217; Mr Denney told Daily Mail Australia.</p>
