He was then charged with a string of offences including four counts of committing aggravated sexual penetration without consent in the course of an aggravated home burglary, one count of aggravated home burglary and commit, one count of stealing, one count of stealing a motor vehicle and reckless driving to escape pursuit by police.
Morrison appeared in court on Thursday but did not enter a plea.
He was remanded in custody and is due to front the Perth Magistrates Court on June 27.
