was woken at around 4.30am on Boxing Day by someone rifling through his car before they took off on foot down the street. Steve — who clearly must have been sleeping in the nud — did some quick thinking and chucked some jocks on before chasing after the intruder. Members of the group pulled what looked to be a knife and a baseball bat on the barely-clothed king as they wrestled on the street before nicking off in two cars. “I didn’t realise there was other kids in the other car up the street, I didn’t think anything of it,” he told . “Once the bat came out I tried to use the young fella I was holding onto as my little shield.” Steve also told he only threw his Reg Grundies on because it was already light outside. “I was naked, found a pair of underpants, threw them on, ran outside,” he said. “It was 4.30am and it was daylight. If it was dark, it could have been a different matter.” Imagine if you were out at 4am on Boxing Day morning and you just clocked some bloke in his dacks grappling with a bunch of would-be robbers in the middle of the street. Hell, imagine if it was still dark and Steve didn’t bother with the undies and just went full commando. Now that would have been a way to kick off the week. Middleton managed to get out of the fracas with a small cut on his hand and an immediate elevation to neighbourhood legend status with a story he’ll be able to regale the grandkids with every Christmas from here on out.
