A TEENAGER WAS sentenced to 32 months in prison on Wednesday for several burglary-related offences. In at least two cases he was caught in the house.

Stephan Davidson Freeman, 17, received the sentence in the District “A” Magistrates’ Court after admitting to committing the offences while he was evicted by his mother for smoking.

One victim, Soma Clarke, said she was awoken by a noise and saw a figure standing in her room holding her bag. She started to scream and chased Freeman but he escaped through a window.

In Carolyn Austin’s case, she saw the silhouette of a person crouching underneath her window. When she shouted a man got up and ran away. (TKS)
