Nineteen-year-old Ernest Wright, who has been slapped with 13 charges, will be spending time behind the \u2018red gate\u2019 of Her Majesty\u2019s Prison pending the outcome of six different matters.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The alleged incidents span from June to October this year.<\/p>\n

On June 6, Wright reportedly stole mirror worth $250 right off of a woman\u2019s vehicle, severing some of the wires in the process.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Then on June 8, he is said to have driven a vehicle without a valid licence, without insurance, and without the consent of the car\u2019s owner.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

The Cooks Extension teen also reportedly beat an officer and escaped custody while he was being transferred from the Police Headquarters to Gray\u2019s Farm Police Station.<\/p>\n

On July 9, a woman reportedly secured her home and when she returned on July 13, she observed that the deadbolt had been pried open, her home ransacked and a refrigerator, juicer, grill, blender and other appliances missing. The missing items had a total value of $11,220.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

She made a report to the police and the investigator, while monitoring the Buy Sell Trade Antigua page on Facebook, saw the defendant post a refrigerator which the victim identified as hers, under a different name.<\/p>\n

Wright then allegedly stole a vehicle battery and weed whacker worth $3,150 in total, out of a vehicle in Golden Grove.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

He also reportedly stole a handbag containing six passports and other important documents and personal items out of woman\u2019s locked vehicle on October 5 after breaking the glass.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The items carry a total value of $,4090.<\/p>\n

And while the defendant was a subject of interest to the police, he was reportedly spotted at a gas station driving a vehicle. He was followed by the police until he stopped the car and ran off.<\/p>\n

The passenger and the vehicle were taken to the police station and upon further investigation it was reportedly found that he did not have a valid licence, or insurance, and did not have permission from the owner to drive the vehicle.<\/p>\n

Wright is set to reappear in court on January 13, 2022..<\/p>\n

Since one of his charges are indictable, the case will have to be dealt with by a High Court judge if there is enough evidence to commit the matter.\u00a0\u2014 DAILY OBSERVER<\/em><\/p>\n
