Car Theft Attempt Foiled By Alarm

Donovan Clarke, 21, resident of Woodpecker Avenue in Ladyville, was charged with attempted theft and damage to property when he appeared yesterday in the #1 Magistrate’s Court. Clarke pled not guilty to the charges. Chief Magistrate Margaret McKenzie offered him a bail of $3,000 which he met. She adjourned his case until June 15.

The incident occurred on Good Friday, April 2.

The complainant, Dalja Chan, 48, who resides at 9A Princess Margaret Drive, reported to the Police that she saw when the culprit pushed his hand through the gypsy window of her burgundy color Toyota Camry car that was parked in front of her house. The culprit drew back his hand and ran when he heard the alarm of the car go off. He was apprehended by the Police shortly afterwards. The damage was to the handle of the door on the right side of the car.
