Investigators in the St Catherine Division have charged a 35-year-old man in connection with the theft of several gaming boxes stolen from a business establishment in the parish last week.

Charged with shop breaking and larceny is Omar Dennis of Denham Town in Kingston and and Old Harbour in St Catherine.

Allegations are that a bar in the parish was broken into on Thursday, February 12.

The police later intercepted a motor vehicle that was transporting three gaming boxes believed to have been stolen during the break-in.

The owner subsequently identified the boxes, and Dennis was arrested on suspicion of theft.

An investigation was launched, and Dennis was later formally charged.

His court date is being finalised.
