Region 1 man charged for stealing gasoline

Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan has released on $30,000 bail Orson Williams, a Port Kaituma man whom Police contend had stolen 20 gallons of gasoline, 16 empty Banks beer bottles, and other articles all to the accumulative value of $96,000.
This heist was allegedly committed at Port Kaituma, North West District, Region One between January 8 and 10, 2018.
The 30-year-old Williams, who gave his address as Mc Doom, Port Kaituma, said he works on a dredge. He denied that he had stolen property belonging to virtual complainant Elroy Allan.
Although disclosing that nothing of the stolen items was recovered, the prosecution had no objection to Williams being placed on bail, thus he was placed on bail.
He has, however, been ordered to report to the Port Kaituma Station every other Friday for the duration of the matter.
The case has been transferred before the Mathew’s Ridge Magistrate for February 6.
