Woman Hands Son Over To Police for Stealing
A responsible mother handed over her teenaged son to the police last night, after she suspected he was involved in a house breaking and larceny incident in the D’Abadie district.
A female victim reported to police that around 7 am on Wednesday 24th July, 2024, she secured her Maloney Gardens, D’Abadie home and went away.
She claims when she returned around 4:30 pm, on that same date, she observed the back door to her house open and several items of clothing belonging to her son missing.
Around 11:25 pm, a woman contacted the Maloney Police Station and informed officers that she observed her son in possession of clothing she did not purchase for him.
The 16-year-old boy was subsequently arrested by officers and taken to the Station along with the stolen items.
There, the victim and her son positively identified the clothing which was taken from their home.
Investigations are ongoing.
