AFTER SPENDING 14 days on remand, a teenager was released and put on a one-year bond yesterday.

Joreon Revaldo Cumberbatch, 18, of Yearwood Road, Black Rock, St Michael, was remanded to HMP Dodds pending sentencing, after pleading guilty to burglary.

On February 8, Cumberbatch admitted in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court to entering Sylvia Pitt’s home as a trespasser and stealing a car stereo costing $700, five bottles of wine worth $125 and two bottles of vodka valued at $270 on January 19.

The prosecutor made an application for a restitution order for the stereo, which was granted, so that Pitt could get back the property.

Magistrate Douglas Frederick placed the teen on the bond, which if he breaches, he will spend six months in prison. (TKS)
