The 31-year-old has been charged with 12 offences by WA Police, including four counts of aggravated burglary.
He is also facing three counts of stealing and three counts of criminal damage among other charges.

The Tigers confirmed they were aware of the charges in a statement overnight.

“The Club will continue to support Marlion and his family while these matters are dealt with.
“As this matter is now before the courts, the Club will not be making any further comment.”
Pickett is due in the Perth Magistrates Court today for a bail hearing.
