Phone thief gets 18 months

Feb 27, 2013 News

A man who admitted to stealing a BlackBerry cellular phone was sentenced to 18 months imprisonment yesterday after he appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ court on a charge of simple larceny.
It was established that the accused, Junior Adams, while on Croal Street, Georgetown, stole the mobile phone valued at $90,000 from Darrel Andrew Johnson. The charge was read to Adams by Magistrate Judy Latchman.
Throughout the court proceeding, Adams repeatedly asked the court for a small sentence.
“Give me a fine time let we done it”
According to police reports, Johnson was with his uncle in a parked car on Croal Street, when his uncle exited the vehicle. Johnson followed, leaving his mobile on the dashboard of the vehicle. Whilst returning to the car, the man noticed the accused placing his hands in the vehicle and removing his belonging.
The suspect made good his escape before Johnson could raise an alarm or stop him. A report was made to the mobile police outpost in the area and the defendant was later apprehended and charged.
