$1,000 bail for juvenile charged with theft

The mother of a boy charged with theft, was asked by a magistrate this morning to find $1,000 immediately in other to prevent her son from being remanded at the prison.

The mother, an employee at a local restaurant, left the courts and later returned with the specified sum.

The circumstances surrounding the incident were not heard at Magistrates’ Court today; however the young man’s trial is set for January 06, 2010 at Juveniles’ Court.

Magistrate Candia George cautioned the young man to stay out of trouble.

“What I want you to do is behave yourself … Don’t follow bad company and don’t do anything for the police to re-arrest you,” she warned.
